Appraisal
This enchanting house is stylistically similar to several others in the area. An unusual and interesting characteristic of many of these dwellings is the attractive pattern created by the varying roof slates. Not only is it a notable building in its own right, but it stands in harmony with the other structures, enhancing the architectural quality of the structures in Geashill.
