What is recorded here

Terraced two-bay three-storey house, built c.1800. Earlier house to rear, front house occupying its forecourt. Now vacant, with disused shop to ground floor. Slate roof, pitched to northwest end and hipped to southeast, with rendered eaves course and rendered chimneystack. Red brick walling to front elevation, replacement timber shopfront to ground floor recently removed and exposing ground floor brickwork. Square-headed window openings, having brick voussoirs and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows to upper floors and widened shop window to ground floor, latter window now boarded up. Round-headed doorway with two steps, brick voussoirs and now boarded up. Concrete area to front of building.
This modest house of c.1800 seems to be an infill building sited in the forecourt of an older house at the rear. Its scale and detailing are similar to that of other buildings on this interesting streetscape. The use of brick is a distinctive feature of the village of Chapelizod and the relatively well-preserved facade of this house enhances the streetscape.
