This building, the original purpose of which is uncertain, is of social and historical interest, representing the continued industrialisation of Monasterevin in the mid nineteenth century, capitalising on the presence of the Grand Canal (Athy Branch) to north. The construction of the building in rubble stone with yellow brick dressings is representative of traditional building techniques and forms an attractive feature on the streetscape at the junction of Drogheda Street and Canal Harbour.
