Description
Detached three-bay two-storey constabulary barrack, built c.1860. Later adapted as Garda Síochána station but now disused. The constabulary barrack is finished in render. A flat-roofed projecting open porch is set over the front door; the door itself is timber panelled. The window openings are flat headed with two over two timber sash frames to the first floor; the ground floor openings are boarded up. The pitched roof is finished with natural slate with cast-iron rainwater goods. The constabulary barrack is road fronted.
Appraisal
This road fronted constabulary barrack is substantially complete. It has retained its original massing and most of its detailing.
