Description

Detached twelve-bay single-storey double-height random sandstone workshop, c. 1890. Hipped roof with apex glazing. Random sandstone walls with dressed limestone quoins and dressings. Camber headed window openings with metal windows and large arched openings at each end with timber double doors. Street and river frontage, and large enclosed yard with additional workshops and stores.

Appraisal

Well maintained and very intact detached late-nineteenth century workshop, retaining much original external fabric. An important site with potential vulnerability to development and having relevance to the history of the Harbour Commissioner's and Cork's docklands.
