Extensively renovated and extended, c.1990, comprising single-bay single-storey lean-to recessed end bay to east. Now in private residential use.

Lean-to artificial slate roof to end bay with uPVC rainwater goods on uPVC eaves. Coursed squared rubble stone walls to front and to side elevations with random rubble stone wall to rear (south) elevation. Square-headed window openings (originally in tripartite arrangement to ground floor in segmental-headed recesses having squared rubble stone voussoirs) with cut-limestone sills, and replacement uPVC casement windows, c.1990. Square-headed door opening remodelled, c.1990, in segmental-headed recess with squared rubble stone voussoirs, timber panelled door, and overlight. Road fronted with concrete footpath to front.
Appraisal
A well-proportioned, Classically-detailed middle-size house that retains most of its original form, but the external appearance of which has not been enhanced by inappropriate replacement fittings to the openings, and the alterations made to the door opening. The house is of particular significance as part of a group with the related butter mill (22809084/WD-21-09-84) and administrative office (22809085/WD-21-09-85), attesting to a component of the industrial legacy of Lismore.
