Description

Section of random rubble stone boundary wall, c.1890, with tooled cut-stone rounded coping, random rubble stone piers having red brick quoins, and rock-faced capping. Renovated, pre-1999, with stone work repointed. Road fronted at perimeter of grounds of Saint Patrick’s Hospital.

Appraisal

An attractive boundary wall, constructed in a traditional manner using unrefined, locally-sourced rubble stone, and which forms a pleasant feature in the streetscape.
