Description

Detached five-bay two-storey house, built c.1800, with modern shed constructed against rear elevation. Located on the roadside of the busy road to Edenderry. Pitched slate roof with rubble limestone chimneystack. Random coursed limestone walls with limestone eaves course. Square-headed window openings with limestone flat arches and limestone sills. Round-headed door opening with limestone block-and-start surround. Located beside graveyard and ruined church.

Appraisal

Although now derelict, this house retains its round-headed limestone door surround. The stone flat arch to the window openings are notable and display a quality of stonework not often found in modest houses. Located adjacent to a ruined church and graveyard, this structure may once have been associated with that ecclesiastical site. Alternatively the house may have been associated with the former mill complex that was located to the north-east of this site.
