house

Terraced two-bay four-storey former house, built c.1790, with replacement timber front to ground floor shared with Nos 80 and 82. Now in use as hotel. Full-height pitched return to rear. Pitched artificial slate roof, gabled to front and hipped to rear, with brick parapet having granite coping, stepped brick chimneystacks, and cast-iron rainwater goods. Painted brick walls laid in English garden wall bond, with tie-plates to middle of facade and to party walls. Square-headed window openings with rendered reveals, painted granite sills and replacement uPVC windows.

This row building is part of an extensive terrace of Georgian houses on Parnell Street, originally named Ballybough Lane and then Great Britain Street. Despite the loss of much historic fabric the building nevertheless contributes significantly to the streetscape. The tall chimneystacks enhance the roof-line. According to Casey (2005), the building retains internal joinery and other features.
