Description
Detached four-bay single-storey house with attic, built c.1800. Pitched corrugated-iron roof with limestone copings, rendered and concrete block chimneystacks. Painted lined-and-ruled rendered walls with square-headed window openings having painted stone sills and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Render label-mouldings and render fret motif pattern above western windows. Square-headed door opening with half-glazed timber panelled door and painted stone plinth blocks.
Appraisal
This modest house is representative of the vernacular tradition in Ireland. Though the corrugated iron is replacement, the material is traditional and compliments the original construction. The timber sash windows and timber half-door are interesting features and the label-mouldings and render motif enliven the façade.
