Appraisal
This attractive building along with its thatched neighbour adds character to Clarinbridge and is a reminder of the vernacular houses that were once common in Irish towns and villages. It retains interesting features, such as its thatched roof, low chimneystack and relatively small openings. The painted surrounds and quoins add interest to the elevation.
