135 Tullyreagh Road, Brookeborough, Enniskillen, Co. Fermanagh, BT94 3TL

A single storey three bay direct entry house dating from between 1834 and 1856, situated on Tullyreagh Road overlooking the road that travels approximately three miles in a south-easterly direction from Tempo to meet the Enniskillen/Fivemiletown road.

The house has whitened exposed stone walls and a thatched roof between cement skews. A plain rendered chimneystack rises right of centre over the position of the original kitchen hearth, with a metal flue projecting from the stack to serve a stove below. The entrance is a timber sheeted door with a glazed panel divided into two vertically. To the left of the door is one vertically sliding sash window, and to the right are two vertically sliding windows with sashes divided into two vertically. The sash stops are curved and sills are of traditional depths. A similar window is located in the left-hand gable, and another at the rear lights the former kitchen. The bedroom at the left-hand end of the house contains a four square casement window in the rear wall that lacks a sill. A passageway connects the house to kitchen and toilet accommodation at the rear, accessed via a lobby between the two with timber ledged and sheeted doors on either side.

The building shown on the 1834 Ordnance Survey map has a slightly different orientation than that shown on the revised 1856 map, which corresponds to the building's present alignment. The property is recorded in the second valuation as the home of James Crawford, with Sir V.A. Brooke as lessor and a rateable value of fifteen shillings. The rear structures are not shown on either historic map and are of unsubstantial construction with thin walls, corrugated roofs and modern windows.

The house was sensitively restored and stabilised in 1999 by means of a reinforced concrete ring beam, followed by replacement of the roof structure in traditional style and re-thatching. It represents a good example of a small vernacular building that has been carefully restored to its original appearance, though the structures to the rear somewhat detract from the character of the house.
