Historical Information

This building first appears on the 1901-02 OS 6” map. The valuation of the premises does not change from the 1860s to 1920s, so it is not possible to determine precisely when it was erected. The brick dressings suggest a later 19th C date. Primary sources: 1. OS 6" map, 3rd edition (1901-02) Co Down sheet 47 (PRONI OS 6/3/47/3) 2. PRONI Section valuation book, VAL 2B/5/49A, p.64. 3. PRONI Valuation revision books, 1866-1930, VAL 12B/22/10A-D.
