Appraisal

The form and scale of this house is representative of the vernacular tradition in Ireland. The materials utilised in its construction, such as the corrugated-iron roof and timber sash windows, are representative of this tradition. Vernacular houses are becoming increasingly rare in both urban and rural areas in Ireland.
