Description

Detached two-bay single-storey former railway warehouse, built 1872, now in use as outbuilding. Pitched corrugated-iron roof. Dressed limestone walls. Segmental-arched carriage openings with ashlar limestone voussoirs. Square-headed openings with brick flat arches.

Appraisal

The architectural form of this building is enhanced by the materials used in its construction. The contrasting stone work and the brick dressings add textural interest to the building. This railway outbuilding forms part of an interesting group of railway structures with the former station to the north-west and the railway bridge to the south-east. Though no longer in use, these buildings are reminders of the great railway era in Ireland.
