What is recorded here
Terraced five-bay two-storey house, built c.1850, with 1980s pubfront. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Shells set decoratively in render to façade with stucco quoins and plinth. Replacement uPVC windows with block-and-start surrounds and sills. Timber door with overlight and block-and-start surround. Integral carriage arch to north end. Shopfront with display windows flanking double doors and rendered fascia board. Building fronts directly onto street.
The treatment of the façade, with applied shell decoration, is of artistic and technical note. The house is an interesting addition to the streetscape with a façade that is not only unique to Drumshanbo but a rarity generally.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
