Appraisal
This house, formerly a pair, was built under the auspices of the Bath estate, as indicated by the date plaque. It forms part of an impressive collection of estate buildings around the town of Carrickmacross. The decorative details and the good quality geometric walling provide visual interest to the streetscape.
