Historic touch to a cottage of two parts

RIDERS to the sea — this attractive, fisherman’s cottage in Crosshaven, Co Cork dates back as early as the 17th century.

Bannoch Burn, is a house of two parts: facing onto Middle road it has a snug, single-storey facade, which drops down dramatically to create another space which houses the living room and kitchen/dining room.

Here, there’s a neat courtyard with hedge boundary that has wide views over the harbour.
