Description
Point Head is a small house located at Chapel Point, built between 1934 and 1939. It is constructed from local stone rubble and is whitewashed. The house features a long, steep slate roof with a high gable end and has a tall stone rubble chimney stack. It includes casement windows, although there is a recent large plate glass bay window that does not fit the character of the building. Additionally, there is a low single-storey wing attached to the house.
