4 Edentrumly Rd, Mayobridge, Newry, Co Down, BT34 2SG

This is a two-bay vernacular building, likely dating from the early 19th century (1800-1819). It originally comprised a single room cabin, subsequently extended with a bay. The building is situated on a rising slope, accessed by a lane to the east of Edentrumly Road. It remains in occupation and its continual maintenance has preserved most original features or resulted in sympathetic replacements, with the possible exception of the front door.

The house is aligned east-west and the kitchen bay, which is one-and-a-half storeys high, is located at the upper (eastern) end, featuring a pitched natural slate roof and a rendered chimney on its east gable. The bedroom bay, at the lower (western) end, is one storey high, covered by a pitched and tarred corrugated metal roof, with a rendered chimney on the west gable. All walls are whitewashed and constructed of lime-rendered, random rubble, with a slightly advanced eaves course to the kitchen bay. The primary elevation faces north. A small gabled windbreak with a modern stained timber door is positioned at the right end of the kitchen bay. To the left of the windbreak is a small 6/6 sash window with a painted timber cill, and to the centre of the right bay, a small 2/2 fixed window, also with a timber cill. A small 1/1 fixed window is set into the upper floor of the right side of the east gable. The rear (south) elevation includes a 2/2 sash window to the left (bedroom) bay and a 1/1 top-opening window to the right (kitchen) bay. The west gable is blank.

The building is shown with the same footprint on an Ordnance Survey map of 1834, and was then valued at under £5, with no changes in valuation recorded between the 1860s and the 1920s. A yard to the front contains two small, single-bay outbuildings with tarred and felted roofs and whitewashed random rubble walls, which are of no special interest.
