Mount Melleray Monastery

End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey boarding house, c.1850, retaining original aspect. Hipped slate roof with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Unpainted rendered, ruled and lined walls. Square-headed window openings in bipartite arrangement with rendered sills, rendered surrounds, and 1/1 timber sash windows. Square-headed door opening with rendered surround, tongue-and-groove timber panelled door, and overlight. Road fronted with grass verge to front.

A well-proportioned building forming part of a planned boarding house complex (with 22902128 - 33/WD-21-28 - 33) having associations with the Mount Mellerary Monastery estate. Well maintained, the building presents an early aspect with important salient features and materials intact. The building, together with the remainder in the group, forms an important landmark in the locality, conforming to the topography of the sloping site through the use of a stepped, varied roofline.
