Appraisal
This house is part of a terrace that was probably erected by Sir Edward Tierney, land agent to the Earl of Egmont, between 1825 and 1849, a period during which most of the village was rebuilt. Possibly altered in the late nineteenth century to include decorative window surrounds, this building retains its early character greatly enlivening the streetscape of Churchtown.
