## Architectural heritage (National Inventory of Architectural Heritage)

- Vartry Reservoir, dam/reservoir/basin, 1860–1870, Regional interest, registry number 16401801, https://www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&county=WI&regno=16401801. Single-stage stone-built valve tower, completed 1868, sited on the margin of Vartry Reservoir (1862-8). The valve tower was built to give access to underground draw-off pipes which stretch from the reservoir through a dam to the treatment plant on the opposite side of the road. The valve tower is constructed in squared rubble with roughly fashioned granite quoins and is topped with a crenellated parapet. There is a metal sheeted door to the south face which is set within a pointed arch recess with granite dressings. The valve tower is accessed via an iron girder bridge comprising twin latticed trusses with parabolic curved top chords which, in turn, is accessed via a tower-like gateway similar in style to the valve tower itself.
- Vartry Lodge, house, 1855–1875, Regional interest, registry number 16401802, https://www.buildingsofireland.ie/niah/search.jsp?type=record&county=WI&regno=16401802. Detached multiple-bay two-storey house, built c.1865, possibly for the manager of the nearby Vartry Reservoir. Built in an eclectic mix of Tudor style and Venetian Gothic with an irregular plan, the front elevation has two outer two-storey projecting gabled bays of unequal height, with a diagonally set two-stage buttressed tower with steep pyramidal roof projecting from the eastern corner of the bay to west. The walls are finished in painted render, but were probably originally in brick and / or stone. The gable-ended pitched roof is slated and has rendered chimneystacks and stone parapets. The roof of the tower is lead sheeted. The lower stage of the tower is actually an open porch and within this is the entrance which consists of a pointed arch timber doorway. The windows are a mixture of pointed arch, flat-headed and cusped, many set within bevelled reveals with others set within gabled half dormers with decorative bargeboards and finials. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The house is set within spacious grounds with a gravel-covered forecourt.

A parcel is the land of a title, not an address. The owner's name is in the Land Registry of Tailte Éireann: a copy of the folio can be ordered on landdirect.ie, for a fee; this site names no owner.
