The History of St. John Vianney Parish

During relocation and restoration, the Rogana staircase (below), which is somewhat unusual for an Irish cottage, was taken apart in two sections and removed. The door separating the stairway from the bedroom, and the door under the stairway are original to the home, as is the door that separates the bedroom from the kitchen area. The house's stonework (below) was dismantled piece by piece after it was numbered with a code that told the masons the order of reassembly.

The two wooden shelves to the left of the fireplace in the bedroom are original to the home (below). One of the boards is marked "Rogana," so it is thought this lumber was shipped to Rogana by rail. One feature of the attic room (right) is the way in which the gable windows are offset of center to allow for the circulation of air around the wide chimney that cuts the space in half.
