Appraisal

Though many interesting features and materials have been replaced, this building remains a significant contributor to the architectural heritage of the city. Bow-fronted facades are a notable feature of Georgian architecture in Cork city, and they contribute to the unique character of the city, as this particular housing form is not found to the same extent elsewhere in Ireland. This building forms part of a significant group with the adjoining bow-fronted buildings to the east.
