Handsome Georgian-style mid-nineteenth century former townhouse, forming part of a small terrace on Pembroke Street Lower. Although the scale and detailing is more subdued in comparison to the adjoining terraces to the south and those on Fitzwilliam Place West, the terrace retains much of its historic form and fabric. It contributes positively to the historic streetscape.
