276 Tennent Street, Edenderry Gardens, Belfast, Co Antrim, BT13 3GG

An asymmetrical, two-bay, two-storey-with-attic terraced brick house constructed between 1907 and 1909, located on the west side of Tennent Street in the Shankill area of Belfast. The building faces east and is rectilinear on plan, with a two-storey gabled return to the rear, a single-storey lean-to structure, and an internal courtyard.

The pitched roof is finished with red clay tiles and features roll-moulded red clay ridge tiles. A wall-head dormer window serves the attic, with a pitched roof and brick copping. A central modern skylight has been inserted into the rear roof. A single replacement brick chimney with plain clay pots stands at the wall head. Brick moulded eaves run along the east elevation, where decorative half-round cast iron rainwater goods with a decorative hopper are fitted. The remainder of the rainwater goods are uPVC, mounted on plain timber fascia.

The main walling is laid in Flemish bond brick with decorative terracotta vents. Rear walling employs English Garden Wall bond, with painted roughcast to the first floor. All windows are uPVC replacements with flat arch heads and offset painted brick sills; some rear ground floor windows have concrete sills. The rear elevation was not inspected.

The principal east-facing elevation is two openings wide at ground floor. The central entrance consists of a brown uPVC front door with a moulded brick surround featuring a camber arch with egg-and-dart motif. Above this is a deeply projecting monopitched timber canopy with a red-tile roof, decorative flashing, and carved fascia. To the right is a segmental window with a replacement brick sill, flanked by modern shutters on each side and topped by a label mould. The first floor features a central flat-roofed canted bay window supported on timber corbels.

The south elevation is abutted by the adjoining terrace at No. 274 Tennent Street. A high gable wall extending through the eaves separates the two properties.

The rear west elevation contains a two-storey pitched-roof return. The south cheek of the return is blank, while the west gable has a central window above a replacement lean-to single-storey brick and slated structure, formerly the coal shed. The north cheek contains an enlarged window and door at ground floor and a small window on the first floor. The principal rear elevation has central windows on both ground and first floors, with roughcast applied to the first floor. An attic window is positioned to the left of the return. The rear boundary wall has been rebuilt and modified, with a single-storey monopitched extension spanning its full length.

The north elevation is abutted by the adjoining terrace.

The property is situated in an urban setting on Tennent Street between Crumlin and Shankill Roads. A small newly paved front garden with a rebuilt dwarf brick wall with balustrade and replacement metal gate faces the street. A long, narrow garden plot extends to the west behind the building, running to the boundary wall. A paved walkway formerly extended along the rear of all properties in the terrace, between the garden plots and the buildings, but has been sealed with locked gates to the south. A mixed-use business park and apartment complex now stands to the west, on the site of the former Edenderry Spinning Mill. Crumlin Road Presbyterian Church is located to the north-east, at the corner of Crumlin Road and Tennent Street.
