Appraisal

A small-scale house representing an element of the early twentieth-century domestic architectural heritage of County Kilkenny. Although now disused the house continues to present an early aspect with the original composition attributes in place together with most of the historic fabric, thereby making a pleasing impression in a rural setting.
