1931, The Claddagh, Galway City An incredible photo that vividly illustrates the end of one era and the beginning of another. Happily, many of the occupants of the old Claddagh settlement moved into the replacement 1930s housing scheme. #Galway #heritage #vernacular #ireland

Building Of The Month: April Ballacolla, County Laois Sitting effortlessly into its surroundings, this wonderful house must surely rank among the country's finest surviving examples of the vernacular thatched form. #heritage #vernacular #laois #Ireland #irish #historichouse

Tom Grant's House, Mooncoin, County Kilkenny One of Ireland's most picturesque historic thatched houses and, in conjunction with the wonderful arrangement of the outbuildings, one of the most important! #heritage #Kilkenny #Irish #Ireland #vernacular

Curracloe, County Wexford One of Ireland's most photographed historic thatched houses. Uniquely (in Irish terms), the majority of County Wexford's remaining vernacular thatched dwellings are mud/clay walled structures. #wexford #heritage #vernacular #Ireland #Irish

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day to you all. For the day that's in it, a house from all four provinces. One of which you can even partake of porter in! #StPatricksDay #heritage #vernacular #Ireland #Irish #StPaddysDay

Happy International Women's Day This incredible photo was taken on the Inishowen Peninsula, County Donegal, and although the two hardy ladies are long past, the little roped house still stands, looking much as it did in this photo. #Donegal #heritage #vernacular #Ireland

Building Of The Month: March The Rathcoole Inn, County Dublin A landmark building and 'possibly' Ireland's largest surviving historic thatched structure. #heritage #Dublin #Irishpub #Ireland #Irish #vernacular

1890 & 1912, Crolly, County Donegal The expansion of the railway network had opened up areas of the country, but as these incredible photos reveal, parts of Ireland were still characterised by significant numbers of small holdings and landless labourers. #donegal #ireland

'The Thatch', Belleek, County Fermanagh A wonderful little roadside house (formerly) of a type that could be found in just about every town in Ireland up to the mid twentieth century. Now in use as an award winning coffee shop. #heritage #Fermanagh #vernacular #Irish #Ireland

Building Of The Month: February Julianstown, County Meath A wonderful landmark building, and one of the few examples of a more substantial historic thatched house remaining in Ireland. #heritage #Meath #Ireland #Irish #vernacular

'Evicted tenant's cabin' Connemara, County Galway Despite the disappearance of the majority of the cabins from the late 1840s, some people continued to eke out an existence from these spartan dwellings into the early 1900s. #Galway #Connemara #Ireland #Irish #vernacular

Drumod, County Leitrim Currently For Sale: just a little roadside house that (on first glance) would seem to be of limited historic significance. However, its entirely possible that substantial quantities of early fabric remain #Leitrim #heritage #Ireland #Irish #vernacular

McDonagh's, Oranmore, County Galway Delighted to see this gem back in business after closing its doors earlier in the year. Like many of Ireland's historic thatched pubs, McDonagh's was originally a dwelling house(s), with a constructed date of c.1790. #Galway #Ireland #irish

On this, the shortest day of the year, let us take a moment to celebrate the indigenous architecture that directly connects us with the incredible monuments of our distant past. #heritage #WinterSolstice2023 #WinterSolstice #Ireland #Irish #vernacular

1913, Collooney, County Sligo A precious moment in time In many small town centres (and some larger ones) there still remained a sizeable number of two-storey vernacular thatched dwellings, though change was already well underway. #heritage #Sligo #vernacular #Ireland #irish

Elphin, County Roscommon Currently For Sale The house is now overgrown and bedraggled (old photo). But there is still enough there to give rise to the hope that a number of historic features remain, including possibly the historic roof structure. #heritage #Roscommon #ireland
