What is recorded here

Terraced two-bay four-storey over basement former house, built c. 1855, now in use as a hotel. Stepped parapet with sphinx and heavy cornice to roofline. Rendered walls with string course and rusticated walls to ground floor. Square-headed openings with replacement uPVC windows and render surrounds. Round-headed openings to ground floor having render keystones and replacement uPVC windows. Cast-iron spear-headed railings set on limestone plinths to site.

Projecting from the line of the terrace, this building and similar two-bay building to the west visually frame the hotel. The render parapet with heavy consoles, a feature shared with both the hotel and neighbouring house, is a detail which unifies the buildings and signifies their relationship to one another. The terrace is representative of the development of Cobh in the mid nineteenth century.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
