Appraisal
This is a fine example of domestic architecture dating from the early decades of the nineteenth-century. Its restrained façade is greatly enlivened by the elegant doorcase with Doric columns and delicate petal fanlight. As one of eight similar houses, within a terrace, it plays a vital role in the attractive streetscape and an important part in the built heritage of Dundalk.
