One of four similar houses, as an early twentieth-century example of speculative housing, they are an important set-piece on Stradbally Road and represent the extension of the streetscape from Bridge Street. The buildings are an integral part of the urban fabric of the historic town core and make a positive contribution to the architectural landscape of Portlaoise.
