‘The Restaurant’, Silent Valley Reservoir Scheme, Head Road, Kilkeel, Newry, Co Down, BT34 4PU

A single-storey building set on a terrace overlooking the Kilkeel River just south of the Silent Valley dam. Gabled roof clad in corrugated metal, painted green and with finialed gabled. Two rendered chimney stacks on ridge (over internal walls). Metal rainwater goods. Walls are corrugated sheeted metal, painted white, over wooden framing set on concrete plinth. Veranda to southeast facing frontage with porched entrance (now disused) at left; supported on five cast-metal columns. Original windows survive on gables and at rear, but only partially along front. They are paired wooden 2/1 casements. The fenestration of the bay window at right front has been changed to a large picture window. New windows also inserted along facade along with a new entrance. The fire exit door on right gable is an original opening. All the doors appear to have been replaced. Small concrete outbuilding at rear north-east corner is probably an original feature.
