Appraisal
This terraced house forms a pair with no.41 and was occupied by a grocer and spirit dealer, James Healy, in the 1830s. It is a typical nineteenth-century layout with a shop on the ground floor and residential accommodation above. The shopfront runs the length of this pair of buildings and is terminated at either end by a matching Ionic column. The work of an experienced and skilled joiner is apparent in the execution of the traditional late nineteenth-century shopfront.
