Historic building

Attached two-bay two-storey house, c.1850, possibly incorporating fabric of earlier range, pre-1840, on site. Extensively renovated, c.1950. One of a pair. Pitched (shared) roof with replacement fibre-cement slate, c.1950, clay ridge tiles, red brick Running bond (shared) chimney stack having red brick capping supporting terracotta pots, rendered coping, and iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves having iron ties. Rendered, ruled and lined walls. Square-headed window openings with sills, and replacement one-over-one timber sash windows, c.1950. Square-headed door opening with tiled step, and replacement glazed timber panelled door, c.1950. Street fronted with concrete footpath to front.

A pleasant small-scale house built as one of an identical or near-identical pair (second in pair not included in survey) representing an element of the mid nineteenth-century domestic architectural heritage of Wexford Town. Having been well maintained, the house presents an early aspect with the elementary form and massing surviving in place together with much of the historic fabric, thereby contributing positively to the urban vernacular quality of the street scene.
