Appraisal
This building is an interesting early twentieth-century addition to this predominantly nineteenth-century street. This building is of apparent architectural design, and is representative of twentieth-century architecture in Ireland at that time. The building retains many interesting features and materials, such as the metal casement windows and red brick. The carved limestone tapered pilasters and band to the ground floor are particularly notable and unusual features of the building.
