Appraisal
An important element of the vernacular tradition in County Limerick, this house, built as one of a pair has been very well maintained and presents an early aspect. Examples of urban domestic vernacular architecture are becoming increasingly rare throughout Ireland as such augments the importance of the site. The group contributes significantly to the visual appeal of the locality.
