A middle-size warehouse representing an important element of the industrial heritage of Graiguenamanagh having traditionally supported the local agricultural economy: the warehouse forms a neat self-contained group with further ranges in High Street (12318036, 8/KK-29-18-36, 8) representing the unofficial industrial quarter of the town. Despite extensive renovation works in the late twentieth century combined with the subsequent decommissioning of the site the original composition attributes survive substantially intact as characterised by the regular pattern of small-scale openings producing an austere, almost monolithic quality in the streetscape.
