What is recorded here
Flight of limestone steps, built c. 1840. Square-headed door opening, smooth rendered surround, c. 1900, opening flanked by recessed panels and surmounted by recessed panel with raised lettering of "BOYNE TERRACE", corbelled course and limestone coping to parapet; wrought-iron gate. Opening flanked by random rubble walls to east and west. Flight of tooled limestone steps rising to west of entrance gate, flanked by roughcast-rendered walls. Entrance fronting directly onto North Strand, steps leading up to terraced houses known as Boyne Terrace.
This flight of limestone steps ascending to Boyne Terrace is worthy of note and makes a significant contribution to the streetscape. The entrance gate, situated in a later surround, has simple detailing which gives it aesthetic appeal, the tooled detailing of the steps further enhances the character of the site.
