Historical Information

Delisted in 1988 after a review of the terrace by the Historic Buildings Council: ‘This terrace was originally listed in the hope that the good quality building would have an influence in upgrading the more numerous poorer ones: In the course of time the complete terrace would be restored to its original state of excellence but instead it would appear that the opposite has happened here and the good buildings had been altered to the unacceptable standard of the poorer quality buildings…Following discussion members recommended that the following buildings should be delisted no. 29 Mitchells, nos. 31/33 Nurseyneeds, nos. 35/37 Kens.’ The replacement building of 1995/6 was designed by GM Design of Coleraine.
