Single storey, two bay vernacular house aligned N-S with left gable to the road. Pitched artificial slate roof with three red brick chimneys – one to each gable and one to party wall between the bays. Half round metal rainwater goods. Principal elevation faces W. Walls are lime-rendered random rubble. Left bay has a windbreak porch to left and window to right. Porch has a concrete flat roof with recessed t+g sheeted entrance door; left and right cheeks are blank. Window is 2/2 sliding sash with granite cill. Right bay has a similar but slightly larger window. Left gable is abutted by a lower outbuilding; the exposed section is blank. Outbuilding is detailed as house but with natural slate roof and door opening at right on W face. Its left gable is blank. Rear elevation has a window to right bay and a window opening to outbuilding. Right gable is abutted by a lower and narrower outbuilding, now ruinous and of no interest. Setting: House is sited on the S side of a lane off Edenappa Road with a number of smaller outbuildings (of no interest) to front. It is enclosed at the lane by a short lime washed wall with concrete coping and similarly detailed square-in-section gate pier – now supporting a modern metal gate

Historical Information

No building is shown at this spot on either the 1835 or 1861 OS map. However, it is cited in the 1864 Second Valuation (surveyed 1862) and its rateable valuation (5 shillings) does not change thereafter. It would therefore appear to be of early 1860s date. Primary sources: 1. OS 6” map, 1st edition, Co Armagh sheet 32 (PRONI OS 6/2/32/1). 2. OS 6” map, 2nd edition, Co Armagh sheet 32 (PRONI OS 6/2/32/2). 3. Second Valuation, Co Armagh, Newry Union (published 1864; MS dates from 1862). 4. Valuation Revision books (PRONI VAL 12B/15/13A-D).
