Appraisal
This is a substantial house with a fine shopfront. The projecting shopfront is a feature particular to Doneraile and has significant interest due to the symmetrical arrangement of openings and the fine doorways with their unusual and decorative overlights. The slate-hanging to the gable is a feature of the county.
