Appraisal
Important mid-eighteenth century building, lent further significance by its proximity to Saint Finbar's Cathedral. Retaining its original scale and form despite the replacement of some characteristic elements such as the entrance door. Distinctive due to its ashlar limestone façade and visual connection with the adjoining building in the terrace.
