Appraisal
Ballinlough House displays architectural styling typical of the mid to late nineteenth century. The timber sash windows with side and toplights are of particular note and are an attractive feature of the house. The front section of the house conceals from view a much earlier house to the rear. The owners of the house believe that the old house could be an early eighteenth-century house.
