Appraisal
This simple house is an integral part of a short terrace of houses overlooking the Bandon estuary. The house is the only one in the terrace to have maintained its historic character, achieved through the retention of historic features including red brick chimneystacks, render plat bands, a slate roof and timber sash windows. This building could act as a template for the others in the terrace seeking to reinstate their historic character.
