Appraisal
The house was formerly known as Parterre as indicated on the OS six inch first edition that dates to the 1830s. Ogee-headed openings and hoodmouldings dominate the Gothic style façade of this building. Though in a state of disrepair, these original features survive well and are unique within the architecture observed in the village, making this a significant addition to the architectural heritage of Kinnitty.
