Appraisal
This building displays a simple well-designed facade which is enlivened by a handsome shopfront. It forms part of a fine terrace in the centre of Rosscarbery, which retains much of its historic character. The building is further enhanced by the retention of much of its traditional fabric seen in its timber sash windows and internal shutters.
