Description
This building is a bungalow located approximately 50 meters north of The Laurels, dating from around 1847. It is constructed from stone coursed rubble with rendered quoins at the corners and features a slate hipped roof, along with stone end stacks and a central stack at the rear. The bungalow is a single-storey, three-bay range, with the central bay projecting forward. There is a sash door in the center, which is sheltered by an open gabled porch. To the left and right of the center, there are single-light casements, and two-light casements are found to the left and right as well. A cross-gable is present on the central bay. The interior has not been inspected.
Historically, Charterville was the third of five estates established by the National Land Company, which was formed by Feargus O'Connor in 1845. The aim was to enable people from factory towns to live on small holdings and qualify for a vote. However, the company faced difficulties and was dissolved in July 1851.
