Templemount — Temple Street matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: This attractive group is closely related to other catholic buildings in the area including the convent and cathedral. With the exception of the windows and entrance door, it retains its original appearance intact and boasts a particularly good eaves detail. The outbuildings and yard are an essential component of the composition and also retain some good detailing. This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
