Annesley Terrace

Terraced two-bay two-storey house, built 1887. Pitched artificial slate roof, red-brick chimney stack, and uPVC rainwater goods. Render removed exposing roughly squared rubble stone walls. Rendered walls to rear elevation. Red-brick block-and-start window surrounds with cut-stone sills and uPVC windows. Round-headed red-brick door surround with single-pane fanlight and replacement panelled door. Opens directly onto street.

A modest two-storey house forming part of a uniform terrace, typical of the late nineteenth century. Despite removal of the historic render and windows the house retains its original scale, proportions and characteristic red-brick surrounds which serve to unify the terrace and enrich the facade. 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.
