Appraisal
This fine detached house, of elegant proportions, form and scale, is a building of importance within Mohill. Positioned on an elevated site over the town, it retains many fine features. The two-over-two timber sash windows, stucco dressings, terracotta roof details and eaves brackets are of technical interest and enhance the symmetrical design of this house.
