Appraisal
This outbuilding, which has been well-maintained to present an early aspect, is an attractive structure that forms an integral component of the Ard Caein estate. Fronting directly on to the road the outbuilding and adjacent gateway is an attractive, prominent feature on the streetscape of Tipper Road, with tall, slender profiled chimney stacks adding distinction to the composition. The building retains many early original features and materials, including mass-produced red brick to the construction and slate roof with cast-iron rainwater goods on corbelled eaves.
