Appraisal

This farm house is an excellent example of domestic architecture in rural Ireland. Modest in scale and form, this farm house exhibits the simple and functional form of traditional building in Ireland. The flanking outbuildings and the farmyard to rear make this an interesting group of traditional farm buildings.
