Moneydig Road, Coleraine, Co. Londonderry, BT51 4DX

Detached two-bay single-storey direct-entry rubblestone dwelling built around 1800, located on the west side of Moneydig Road at a slightly lower level than the road. The building comprises a main cottage with a slated byre attached to the north gable.

The main dwelling is rectangular on plan, facing east, with a pitched corrugated iron roof over thatch, cement parged verges, and a single rendered brick chimneystack to the north gable. The walling is rubblestone with whitewash finish. The front elevation is three openings wide, comprising a central square-headed door opening with two flanking square-headed window openings, all without sills and currently lacking windows. The byre to the north has a single square-headed window opening with a single-pane timber sash window featuring an exposed sash box and an artificial slate roof. The south gable is blank with exposed rubblestone walling. The rear elevation is cement rendered with a single square-headed window opening at the north end. The north gable is blank, displaying roughly coursed and snecked rubblestone with some squared quoins.

The building predates the first edition Ordnance Survey map of 1831–2 but did not appear in the Townland Valuation of 1828–40. At Griffith's Valuation in 1856–64, two dwellings occupied the site, held by William Semple and Alexander Morrell and leased from the Marquess of Waterford, each valued at 15 shillings on a plot of 1 rood and 20 perches. By 1872 the property had become a single dwelling valued at 10 shillings and occupied by Alexander Tomlinson. Joseph McAtamney took over in 1890, with the valuation raised to £1 10 shillings in 1904, indicating improvements were undertaken at that time. McAtamney was a widower and farm labourer living with three young children in a single-room thatched house designated third class. Robert McCann occupied the house from 1915, followed by Patrick McGrogan in 1924. The dwelling is now vacant and in derelict condition, having lost historic fabric and detailing.
