After Monday’s examination of Lisnavagh, County Carlow, here outside one of the entrance gates to the estate is a former school, thought to date from the late 1840s and perhaps designed, like so much else here, by Daniel Robertson. The building is certainly in the same Tudor-Gothic manner, with an abundance of hood mouldings over the windows and octagonal chimney stacks at either end of the main block which is centred on a two-storey gable. A work of considerable charm.
