Description

Lunga is an 18th-century farmhouse that features a traditional design. The house is two storeys high and has a thinly rendered exterior. It is topped with a slate roof and includes a gabled porch at the front, along with a lean-to porch at the rear. There have been additions made to the east and west sides, and the interior has been gutted.

Adjacent to the farmhouse is an out-house that is at right angles to the main building. This structure is one storey with an attic, harled, and currently roofless. It has small windows that have sockets for iron bars and features a two-way fire-stair at the north end leading to the attic.
