This building, which has been comprehensively renovated in the late nineteenth century leading to the loss of much of the original fabric, is of interest primarily due to its contribution to/continuation of the terrace as it turns the corner from Main Street South on to Canal Street. The building is of some social and historic significance for its age, attesting to the continued development of the historic core of Naas around the canal in the mid nineteenth century. The use of render for decorative purposes throughout is an attractive feature. The replacement fittings installed during renovation have not had a positive impact on the original appearance of the building.
