This attractive late nineteenth-century building has maintained its restrained proportion and simple detailing. The most striking part of building is the entrance to the main elevation, the neat moulded panels and elaborate moulding to the consoles, giving this simple building some aesthetic interest. The curved building line, following that of the road, further adds to the houses architectural interest and makes an important contribution to the built heritage of Drogheda.
