Appraisal
This house is an attractive building of balanced Georgian proportions that has been well maintained to present an early aspect. The house retains important early surviving salient features and materials, including an attractive pubfront of artistic design merit. The house is an integral component of the streetscape and contributes to the historic quality of O’Connell Street.
