Terraced three-bay two-storey house, extant 1840, on a rectangular plan. One of a pair. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, grey brick Running bond chimney stack (south) having concrete capping supporting terracotta pots, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Rendered wall (ground floor); roughcast surface finish (first floor). Square-headed central door opening with concealed dressings framing replacement glazed timber panelled door. Square-headed window openings with rendered sills, and concealed dressings framing one-over-one timber sash windows having part exposed sash boxes. Street fronted with concrete footpath to front.
A house erected as one of a pair of houses (including 15605201) identified as an integral component of the urban vernacular heritage of New Ross by such attributes as the compact rectilinear plan form; the disproportionate bias of solid to void in the massing compounded by the slight diminishing in scale of the openings on each floor producing a graduated tiered visual effect; and the high pitched roof showing a small cut slate finish.
