Historical Information

None of these houses are cited in the 1863 Second Valuation book. They first appear in the Valuation Revision of 1866, all having an identical valuation of £9. This suggests they were built as a group in the mid 1860s. Sources: PRONI – VAL 2B/2/39C, p.133; VAL 12B/15/1A, p.135a.

Evaluation

A terrace of three three-storey/ two-bay dwellings. Abutting no.61 (HB16/29/004), this terrace has some streetscape value when viewed as a group. However, the loss of architectural detailing on each individual property means they are not of special architectural or historic interest.
