Description
This is an 18th and early 19th century farmhouse situated in Airieland. It is a two-storey building with a basement to the south, constructed of painted rubble with polished raised margins and quoins on the north side.
The front elevation is symmetrical, with three bays. The central doorway has a porch made of bull-nosed monolithic slabs supporting the lintel, and a blind window sits above the doorway. The farmhouse has single-light sash windows; those on the front elevation have fixed lower sashes. The windows have multi-pane glazing to the north, and four panes to the south.
The roof was re-roofed with concrete tiles around 1970, and the chimney stacks have been rebuilt using rendered brick.
