Appraisal
Coolagh Cottage is named on the early nineteenth century maps of the area. This house incorporates fabric of the earlier dwelling, relaying the history of occupation on the site throughout the nineteenth century. The retention of various timber sash windows as well as an early timber panelled door adds interest and character to the façade.
