Appraisal
The public house on the ground floor and living accommodation above is an architectural arrangement that was often found on streetscapes throughout Ireland. There has been attention to detail in the design of this façade with brackets and cornices enlivening window and door openings. This building has been well maintained and its nineteenth-century character remains apparent.
