Description
Detached three-bay two-storey former house, built c.1920, now in use as a Garda station. Hipped slate roof with red brick chimneystack. Rendered walls. Timber sash windows with stone sills. Rendered and stone outbuildings with pitched slate roofs to rear.
Appraisal
This house occupies a dominant position in the village streetscape, as it terminates the western end of the main street. The simple form of the building is enhanced by the retention of several original features and materials, such as the timber sash windows and the related outbuildings.
