house

Terraced three-bay two-storey house, extant 1940, on a rectangular plan; two-bay two-storey rear (east) elevation. Now disused. Pitched slate roof with roll moulded terracotta ridge tiles, rendered "wallhead" chimney stack to rear (east) elevation having stepped capping supporting yellow terracotta pots, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves retaining cast-iron downpipe. Rendered, ruled and lined walls. Square-headed central door opening with concealed dressings framing glazed timber boarded door. Square-headed window openings with concrete sills, and concealed dressings framing two-over-two timber sash windows. Square-headed window openings to rear (east) elevation with concealed dressings framing two-over-two timber sash windows. Street fronted with concrete footpath to front.

A house representing an integral component of the domestic built heritage of Enniscorthy with the architectural value of the composition suggested by such attributes as the compact rectilinear plan form; and the diminishing in scale of the openings on each floor producing a graduated visual impression. A period of unoccupancy notwithstanding, the elementary form and massing survive intact together with substantial quantities of the original fabric, thus upholding the character or integrity of a house making a pleasing visual statement in Saint John's Street.
