What is recorded here

Attached three-bay three-storey former Royal Irish Constabulary barracks, built c. 1890, having single-storey extension to rear (west) elevation. Pitched slate roof with red brick chimneystacks. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls. Square-headed openings with one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and painted concrete sills. Square-headed openings having timber panelled doors and flanking square-headed openings with fixed windows and concrete sills. Pair of square-profile piers to south-east having single-leaf cast-iron gate and rendered boundary walls.
This substantial former barracks has retained much of its original character, due in part to the retention of timber sash windows, slate roof and brick chimneystacks. Its three-storey construction in a streetscape of predominantly two-storey buildings makes it a striking building within Patrickswell.
