Vernacular House, 25 Creevy Road, Castlederg, BT81 7PW

Three structural bay, direct entry, storey and a half vernacular house with bed outshot. Historic thatch under corrugated metal roof. Rubble stone walling with remains of lime render and white wash finish. Building aligns north west to south east and faces north east to remains of a yard and a long straight entrance drive. The main entrance elevation is quite tall relative to most vernacular houses. Window and door openings only remain with the exception of frames to the doors. The main entrance to the central bay is near the cross wall opposite the fire. A window opening without cill lights this space. A second door near the gable enters the south east bay. This door frame is raised on cut stones above ground level. A single window without cill lights the north west bay. At ridge level there are two chimneys, one on the north west gable one on the cross wall between the central and south east bays. This chimney has a slight angle on the side back into the central bay. No building abuts the south east gable which is blank. To the north west a small stone out house abuts and this is connected to a range of sheds perpendicular to the house. There is a window at first floor level in the gable. At a former period another range of barns opposite formed a small court yard in front of the house. The entrance lane is parallel to the surviving sheds and enters the courtyard at their corner. The rear of the building is protected from the elements by a small sheugh along the rear wall and some trees. There is a small stone walled (Vegetable) garden extending 10 metres to the rear. There are a number of openings along this elevation. To the south east gable a window of standard size. A large bed out shot sits out from the central bay. The north west bay has a small window and then a window of the standard size near the gable.
