Appraisal
This attractive house, set within a terrace of similar buildings, is a fine example of Irish domestic architecture at the turn of the nineteenth century. Retaining many interesting features such as its canted bay window, dormer and cast-iron railings, it also displays finely-crafted embellishments, which compliment its simple design.
