Appraisal
Mid-eighteenth century terraced house, distinctive by its ashlar limestone façade. Generally very well maintained with some modifications, such as the bricking up of the carriage arch to create a square headed garage entrance. Highly significant also due to its situation near St. Finbarr's Cathedral and its current use as deanery.
