Description
Detached five-bay single-storey vernacular house, built c. 1800, with porch to front with hipped thatched roof and single-bay single-storey lean-to addition to rear. Hipped thatched roof with painted rubble stone chimneystack. Exposed Rubble limestone walls. Square-headed window openings with render surrounds and sills and replacement uPVC windows. Square-headed recent timber battened half-door to porch with render surround. Garden to front of house
Appraisal
The long single-storey plan-form of this house is characteristic of Irish vernacular houses. Dwellings such as this are becoming increasingly rare and the retention of the thatched roof is a significant feature.
