What is recorded here

Attached four-bay two-storey house, built c.1860, with integral carriage arch to west end. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks towards mid-roof, and cut-stone eaves course. Snecked dressed stone walls to front (south) elevation, with recent plaque, rubble walling to west gable, with render plinth course. Square-headed window openings with cut-stone sills and replacement uPVC windows. Round-headed door opening with render surround and timber panelled door with fanlight. Elliptical carriage arch with timber battened double-leaf door having cut-stone voussoirs.
This building's broad street frontage and squat appearance make it distinctive in the streetscape. The extensive use of dressed stone is an indication of the wealth and prosperity of Ballinasloe at the time of its construction, when this and other buildings replaced an earlier less formal settlement pattern.
