House with straw roof probably near Dublin 1963.

Photographed near Dublin in 1963, this long, single-story cottage features a prominent, thick thatched roof held in place by a series of thin rods. Its light-colored, whitewashed walls are punctuated by small, dark-framed windows and a recessed doorway, with a rectangular chimney protruding from the roof’s ridge. A neatly trimmed hedge lines the front of the house, separating it from a low stone wall and a paved area in the foreground. To the right, a slender pole with crossbars rises into the overcast sky.
