98 Glenhoy Rd Ballygawley Co. Tyrone BT70 2AY

One and a half-storey formalized vernacular house of pre-1854 construction, which appears to have assumed its present form in 1880 when the roof what was originally a lower - probably thatched - dwelling, was raised and slated and the façade remodeled. The property originally served as the miller’s residence for the corn mill on the opposite side of the road (HB13 03 018). SETTING Rural setting. The house faces directly on to the roadside at the eastern end of Glenhoy Road, close to the junction with Feddan and Ballynasaggart Roads, 3.3km W of Ballygawley. Directly opposite is Cleanally corn mill. The house backs on to gently sloping ground upon which there once stood (to the immediate NW) a single-storey outbuilding, but this was demolished recently. GENERAL The house consists of a three openings wide one and a half-storey gabled block with a full-width single-storey c.1970s lean-to to the rear and a single-storey corrugated-iron shed to the E gable. The building is largely finished in roughcast with areas (notably the W gable) having the rubble construction exposed; brick eaves course. The main gabled roof is now devoid of slates and the timber structure is exposed to the elements. There are two c.1950s replacement rustic brick chimneystacks. Corrugated-iron roof to the lean-to. The openings are regular with a mixture of stone and what appear to be concrete sills, all are now devoid of frames or doors. FRONT (S) ELEVATION Symmetrical. Central entrance with window opening either side. Above the doorway ius a small, gabled half-dormer with semicircular arched window opening. The shed to the right side has a plain sheeted door. W ELEVATION Two upper level windows to main gable. Large rectangular window to lean-to. E ELEVATION Two upper level windows to main gable. This side of the lean-to and the shed appear to be both blank. N ELEVATION The lean-to has a window to far left and a doorway to centre-left.
