In Ireland the search for a working definition of vernacular architecture which permits developed forms to be included, but at the same time excludes buildings of formal design, has been conducted in an almost exclusively rural field of study. In this context dwellings are considered to be vernacular partly because they display evolved characteristics of form and morphology which are regionally traditional and distinctive, partly because of a strong influence of local building materials and environmental conditions, and partly because the buildings in question fulfil certain criteria which in practice have been found to be universal to and diagnostic of Irish vernacular dwellings
