Square-headed window openings, with plain reveals, replacement concrete sills, brick voussoirs, and replacement uPVC casements throughout.

Square-headed replacement timber door with paned over-light. Street-fronted on Parnell Street, building forming part of varied terrace.

An early nineteenth-century Georgian townhouse, which forms part of a varied terrace largely comprising eighteenth-century buildings. Characterised by balanced proportions and plain detailing, it is a typical example of urban domestic architecture, from this period. Despite the modern re-modelling of the shopfront and replacement of the windows with uPVC insertions, it continues to make a significant contribution to the townscape. The quoin detailing suggests a slightly later date of construction, in comparison with nearby terraces.
