33 Loughbrickland Road, Rathfriland, Newry, Co Down, BT34 5AD

This is a single-storey, four-bay vernacular dwelling situated on the northeast side of Loughbrickland Road, Rathfriland. The building dates from approximately 1820 to 1839. It is part of the local landscape and vernacular tradition.

The house has a pitched roof covered with natural slate, with three smooth, cement-rendered and corbelled chimneys: one to each gable and one between the third and fourth bays. Three skylights are set into the rear roof slope. Half-round rainwater goods are fitted. A raised eaves course is visible. The main elevation faces southwest towards the road. The walls are smooth cement rendered with stepped, V-channelled quoins. Openings feature stop-chamfered detailing. The entrance door is located in the second bay from the left and is a timber door, not original to the building, with a circular glazed section above and three raised and fielded panels below, with a wooden hood mould over the upper glazing, and a small electric light positioned above the door. All windows are horizontally divided 2/2 sash windows with exposed boxes - the middle window has horns - and granite cills. Single windows are present in the first, third and fourth bays.

To the left gable is a rubble stone shed with a pitched corrugated metal roof. To the rear, abutting the third bay from the left, is a brick kitchen annex with a monopitched artificial slate roof. The left side of the rear elevation is blank. The rear face features a single horizontally divided 2/2 sliding sash window with horns. The right side of the rear elevation has a modern sheeted timber door with a glazed top panel. The first and second bays of the main block feature a single vertically divided sash window. The right gable is abutted by a random rubble lean-to with a pitched corrugated metal roof, which was previously thatched. The exposed wall above the lean-to is blank.

The surrounding area includes small hedges and a grassed area to the front, with a farmyard situated to the rear. A building is depicted on the 1834 Ordnance Survey map, although the valuation map for the property is missing, meaning it is unclear whether this is the current structure.
