Description

Section of boundary wall associated with Millmount House (15310088), built c.1848, having cast-iron railings over. Now overgrown with ivy. Located to the east side of Millmount house supporting railway embankment.

Appraisal

A robust and well-built section of boundary wall/embankment with railings over, which forms and integral part of the Millmount House site (15310088). This wall was probably built by the Midland and Great Western Railway Company to serve the Dublin Broadstone to Galway line, which was built as far as Mullingar by 1848. It forms part of an extensive collection of structures related with this former company in Westmeath. The cast-iron railings over complete the setting.
