About Rivendell
The National Inventory rates Rivendell Regional, one of 86 in Crosshaven. Rivendell dates from 1730–1770.
A fine thatched house, which retains much of its historic character and charm. Thatched vernacular houses such as this one were once a common feature in the landscape, though now this house is an incredibly rare survivor in this area of Cork county, south of the city.
