Appraisal
Built as part of an attractive terrace, this house maintains its overall character and form in spite of some alterations. The retention of a decorative render shopfront and timber sliding sash windows adds interest to the façade. Together with its neighbours, this building contributes significantly to the streetscape of Bantry town.
