Description
Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1835, with one and a half-storey lean-to extension to south and two-storey lean-to to rear. The walls are finished in unpainted lined render with moulded quoins and prominent square brackets to the eaves. The hipped roof is slated and has rendered chimneystacks. The entrance consists of a replacement timber and glazed door, rectangular fanlight with geometric tracery and a projecting cornice-like entablature. There is another doorway (with a panelled and glazed door and four pane rectangular fanlight) to the north elevation. The window openings are flat-headed and largely filled with eight over eight, eight over twelve, and two over two timber sash frames. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The house is set with its north elevation hard onto the road, with a small private lane running alongside the front (west) elevation.
Appraisal
Largely well preserved house of the early to mid 19th-century whose impact is enhanced by its prominent setting within the small hamlet of Moyne. The house is labelled as "Dispensary" and "Post Office" on the Ordnance Survey County Wicklow Sheet 33.
