Vesey Arms, house in County Dublin

What is recorded here

Vesey Arms in Lucan Demesne was made by joining two houses into one pub. A magnificent loophole for the fellow who promised he’d leave after one pint: he has left that house, and his next pint is in the neighbour’s.

Pair of semi-detached three-bay two-storey former houses, c.1820, now amalgamated and in use as a public house. Rendered, ruled and lined walls with parallel quoins to right-hand house. Timber sash and casement windows to first floor. Plate glass windows and modern timber pub front to ground floor. Pitched slate roof with parapet to right-hand section. Two rendered chimney stacks. Large two-storey rere section with roughcast walls and pitched slate roof.

A modest two-storey public house retaining its original proportions, prominently sited in and contributing to this streetscape in the village centre.
