Appraisal
Dublin Civic Trust's 'Survey of Gable-Fronted and Other Early Buildings of Dublin City,' 2012, states 'Heavily modified over the centuries, this diminutive former house has lost all original external fabric and its original roof during various waves of modification. The attic storey was only demolished in the late twentieth-century, as evidenced by the.....1970s photograph, revealing the outline of a part-cruciform shaped roof on the adjacent party wall of No. 72.'
