What is recorded here

Terrace of four three-bay two-storey houses, built c.1820. Currently in both domestic and commercial use. Pitched slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks. Rendered walls with string course to ground floor and stucco quoins. Square-headed window openings with stone sills and timber sash and replacement uPVC windows. Round-headed tooled block-and-start stone door surround with fanlights, timber panelled doors with limestone steps to entrances. Cast-iron bootscrapers to two houses. Two-storey stone and rendered outbuildings to rear. Houses front onto St. George's Terrace.
The survival of the early-nineteenth century fabric of these symmetrical terraced houses makes an important contribution to the streetscape. The stone block-and-start doorcases are fine examples of an architectural motif that is repeated frequently throughout Carrick-on-Shannon. The decorative petal fanlight and two remaining bootscrapers are of artistic and technical interest.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
