This freestanding vent pipe is of social significance due to the role it played in the sewage system developed in Tyrrellspass the late nineteenth-century. This vent pipe now forms a subtle feature in the streetscape and is of some design merit, having been conceived as an aesthetic as well as functional item of street furniture.
