Ballin Temple was a fine three-storey Georgian house with a five-bay entrance front. The centre bay was distinguished by a Venetian window and a pedimented Grecian-Doric porte-cochere. The centre of the garden front had a colonnaded semi-circular bow. The house existed as a shell for a number of years after being destroyed by fire in 1917. Ralph H. Byrne surveyed the ruins in 1928 when rebuilding of the house was contemplated. Later demolished except for a portico.
