End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey with attic house, built 1842, with single-bay two-storey gabled return to rear. Now in use as offices. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks, cast-iron roof-light, and cast-iron rainwater goods with decorative paired brackets. Ruled-and-lined rendered walls, slate-hung to east gable and east elevation of return, with square-headed openings having tooled limestone sills and six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows. Elliptical-headed concave door opening with raised render surround, timber panelled door with panelled pilasters, cornice, fanlight with moulded surround and wreath detail, with flight of limestone steps having cast-iron railings. Outbuilding to rear with mono-pitched slate roof.
This early Victorian house is part of a very intact terrace of houses of similar form and decoration. It utilizes features typical of its period in Ireland such as the arched door opening and fanlight and its modest façade is enlivened by the render door surround, cornice, flight of stone steps and slate-hung gable which is a characteristic feature in Clonmel.
