Appraisal
This attractive early-nineteenth-century townhouse retains its original balanced proportion and form, the attractive elegant columned doorcase and fine delicate fanlight further enhance the facade. Located within a small terrace it is an important element of the streetscape of Wellington Place and a positive addition to the built heritage of Dundalk.
