Appraisal
This symmetrical house is of substantial size and has a commanding position within the landscape. It is a pleasant example of nineteenth-century domestic architecture. Located within mature grounds, it forms a grouping of associated ecclesiastical structures including the Dromahair's Roman Catholic church.
