Garage buildings ('Quinn's of Portaferry'), 85 High Street, Portaferry, Co Down, BT22 1QU

Large single storey Belfast Truss roofed garage / car showroom, built c.1920s as a bus depot, but now somewhat modernised with large modern glazed showroom front. To the rear is a smaller Belfast Truss roof building which also appears to have belonged to the depot. The structures are set on the southeast side of High Street, Portaferry. The main building measures roughly 30m x 18m. The front (NW) elevation is largely taken up with a large modern car showroom window and large flat arch vehicle entrance, with the remainder of the elevation plain rendered. The NE elevation is finished in roughcast with a large vehicle entrance with sliding door to left and a relatively recent small single storey gabled building abutting the elevation to right. The SW elevation is plain rendered with a single high-level window. The rear elevation is in rubble stone with brick dressings to some blocked up window openings. There is a small single storey breeze block built extension to far left and a much larger single storey flat roofed extension to right. The curved roof is felt-covered and has two central ‘gabled’ roof light projections. To the SE corner of the open yard behind this building there is a smaller structure (roughly 18m x 8m) with a Belfast Truss roof, now largely disused. This is largely plain rendered with two large vehicle doorways to the NW elevation and a large lean-to section to the SE. The curved roof is covered in corrugated metal with two ‘gabled’ roof lights now partly covered in corrugated metal also.
