Description

Detached eight-bay two-storey country house, built c. 1835, with five-bay side elevation. Hipped roof with rendered chimneystacks. Square-headed window openings. Projecting porch with four Ionic columns and steps up to entrance. Doric style pillared gate lodge within demesne.

Appraisal

Kilfrush was built for Joseph Gubbin by the architect Charles Frederick Anderson. It is an important country house within the architectural heritage of County Limerick. The attendant Doric style gate lodge is also of significance being part of the demesne related architecture.
