What is recorded here

Detached corner-sited gable-fronted three-bay two-storey former cinema, built in 1924, with extension to west and abutting building to rear. Fronts directly onto street. Pitched slate roof with modern vent pipe, hidden behind rendered parapet with stone coping and finial. Ruled-and-lined render to walls with rendered quoins to first floor front elevation and yellow brick to ground floor, with rendered plinth, string course and circular plaque to front elevation reading 'Irish National Foresters 1923'. Timber casement windows with rendered surrounds and painted sills. Blind window openings to east elevation with rendered surrounds and cornice above. Segmental-headed door opening with rendered surround to timber panelled door accessed via stone steps with cast-iron railings.
This former cinema, fronting onto Market Square, still retains some architectural detailing. The gable front, with its large rendered doorway encased in yellow brick, the fine rendered surrounds to the windows and doors, along with small details such as the oculus window and wall plaque add to architectural significance of the premises.
