Description
Detached stone handball alley, built c. 1900. Uncoursed rubble limestone walling, interior faces smooth-rendered. Concrete floor. Concrete changing facility and viewing platform added to east end c. 1930.
Appraisal
This is a well-built example of a traditional handball alley with substantial rubble stone walling. Once a dominant feature in the Irish countryside, good examples are becoming increasingly rare. |
