This modest building contains some interesting original features including a hornless tripartite window at second floor and simple traditional shopfront. It is one of a terrace of three single-bay buildings with a lower roofline than its neighbours. The traditional shopfront arrangement evident in this building is becoming an increasingly rare sight in the streetscapes of Irish towns.
