Dublin Civic Trust's 'Survey of Gable-Fronted Houses and Other Early Buildings of Dublin' (2012) states ‘This unusual pair of former townhouses appears to date from the mid eighteenth-century, with transitional features such as corner chimneybreasts to the front rooms and standard chimneybreasts to the rear. With a recorded closed-string staircase in at least one house, they are one of the best surviving pairs of the transitional house type in the city, representing a fine example amongst an ever-dwindling stock of mid-Georgian houses that once lined secondary thoroughfares.'
