Appraisal
This structure, built as the original Togher House prior to commencement of the later house (11816075/KD-21-16-75), is of social and historic interest as evidence of the earliest residence on the grounds. Now in use as a return to the main house, the building is well maintained and retains most of its original features and materials, including timber sash fenestration and slate roofs.
