Appraisal
This structure, which is one of a pair of houses along a terrace, has a more modest design than its neighbours. Despite this, its exterior remains attractive, boasting a simple symmetry and skillfully finished original fabric and features. The house contributes to the streetscape of Oxmantown Mall, a fine thoroughfare which was laid out by Sir Lawrence Parsons, the Second Earl of Rosse.
