What is recorded here
End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey house, built 1887, ground floor now in use as a hairdressing salon. Pitched slate roof, red-brick chimney stacks and uPVC rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with red-brick block-and-start quoins and smooth rendered plinth. Red-brick block-and-start window dressings with painted sills, patent reveals to openings on rear elevation. Original two-over-two timber sliding sash windows. Round-headed red-brick door surround with single-pane fanlight and replacement panelled door. Opens directly on to street. Rear outbuilding heavily remodelled to domestic use.
A modest but well-preserved two-storey house forming part of a uniform terrace, typical of the late nineteenth century. It largely retains its original form and character. The use of contrasting rendered finish and red-brick dressings enriches the façade, that is further enhanced by the survival of original sash windows. The building makes an important contribution to the modest streetscape of Church Street, which contrasts with the grander scale of civic, ecclesiastical and larger residential buildings on Farnham Street, and provides insight into the historic urban development and social history of Cavan town.
