Appraisal
An attractive early nineteenth-century building, which retains its early character and much of its fabric. This appealing structure occupies an important position in the townscape of Tyrrellspass adjacent to The Crescent. The retention of the fine cut stone doorcase, which is characteristic of Tyrrellspass, and the timber sash windows, helps to add character both to this structure and to the overall streetscape.
