Description

Painted render finish to upper floors. Square headed window openings to upper floors with cills and moulded architraves. Windows are replacement timber casement.

Street frontage.
Appraisal
Significant early-nineteenth century terraced building retaining its original scale and form as well as a steeply pitched roofline, distinctive in this much altered streetscape. Although some modification has taken place, this building, particularly as one of a group of three, contributes positively to the street in terms of character. Important also due to its location on one of the Cork city's most historic streets.
