Description

Detached three-bay split-level former railway goods shed, built c.1870 as part of the Sligo, Leitrim and Northern Counties Railway. Now in use as a private dwelling. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystack and decorative bargeboards. Random coursed limestone walls with tooled limestone quoins. One original segmental-headed window opening to west facing side elevation, now filled in. Two large segmental-headed openings to the front and rear elevation are filled-in and have door openings inserted. Segmental-headed door opening to west facing side elevation, now filled-in.

Appraisal

This former goods shed forms part of a group with the surviving railway related structures. This building once had two large segmental-headed opening to the rear and front elevation to allow access to large crates of goods. Its design and treatment are reflective of associated structures in the station and are representative of nineteenth-century railway architecture.
