The Department's description

Exterior description and setting

A detached multi-bay two-storey vernacular farmhouse, built c.1850, located to south of Gloverstown Road, opposite Duneane Presbyterian Church (HB20/01/19A). The structure first appeared on the 1857 OS map. Although the house has retained its original plan form, original roof, fenestration and doors have been lost since the structure was noted during the 1970s First Survey. Window spacing has also been altered and the house has been re-rendered with modern decorative elements added that are unsympathetic to the original farmhouse.
