About Rockspring
Rockspring is one of 44 buildings in Fethard the National Inventory rates Regional. Its record dates Rockspring to 1875–1880. 5 other places on the record stand within 400 m.
The high quality of design and construction associated with railway architecture in the nineteenth century is strongly in evidence in this former station. The distinctly separate massing of the different interior spaces leads to elevations which are all asymmetrical, a conceit typical of the picturesque movement.

Questions about Rockspring
Is Rockspring on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 22110004).
Can you visit Rockspring?
It can be seen from the street; whether you can go inside depends on its owner.
When was Rockspring built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1875–1880.
Is Rockspring protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
