Appraisal
The size and scale of this house and its diminishing windows are features typical of town houses of the era in Ireland. It forms a terrace with the surrounding structures which are of a similar size and form and which together form a notable feature on the narrow streetscape. The building retains its timber sash windows, which enhance the architectural form and decoration is restricted to the doorcase and fanlight, which provide a main focus to the façade.
