Description

The former Toll House, likely built around 1830 and altered since, is a rectangular building with a rounded lean-to wing on the west side. It stands two storeys high and features two windows on each floor, with exposed frames and glazing bars. The structure is made of roughly coursed stonework, accented with rendered bands and a parapet. The Toll House is part of a group with Taddiport Bridge.
