Why it mattered
James Candon — Patrick Street matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: This end-of-terrace house and shop are virtually intact. The shop was established in 1868 and much of its interior survives including the counter, goods drawers, shelving, cast-iron support columns and stove. This modest structure is enlivened and enhanced by its stucco detailing and original features. This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
