Dublin Civic Trust's 'Survey of Gable-Fronted Houses and Other Early Buildings of Dublin' (2012) states 'Originally titled St. Kevans Port, Camden Street was one of the main routes into the city from the south. While most of the building stock dates from the latter part of the eighteenth century onwards, a number of houses exhibit characteristics of an earlier typology, as with No. 17. The closet return, steeply pitched roof, shared chimneystack to the centre of plan and the overall proportions suggest an early to mid eighteenth-century date for this and the adjoining building, thus representing some of the earliest structures on the street.'
