Thatched roof, pitched to south, hipped to north, with red brick chimneystack. Pitched slate roof to extension. Painted rendered rubble stone walls.

Appraisal
The long low profile of this structure is typical of many modest thatched buildings in Ireland, extended as it has been lengthways. The projecting entrance and the small windows are also typical.
