Description

Roo Emah is a house built around 1858, facing south, and features two stories with three bays. It has a single-storey attic and an irregular four-bay east-facing section linked at the rear to form an L-shape, known as 'Marwin'. This property was formerly a station and includes station houses with a canopied former platform area at the rear on the west side of Marwin.

The building is constructed of tooled rubble with tooled ashlar dressings. Roo Emah has a corniced central door flanked by slightly projecting gabled bays, each featuring a segmental-headed window on the first floor. Marwin has a projecting porch with a swept slated roof and an original rear gabled dormer window that includes segmental-headed two-light fenestration, along with a modern dormer at the front (east).

The glazing varies throughout the building, which also features coped ridge and end stacks, a slate roof with projecting eaves.
