St. Leonard's, 90 Dublin Road, Newry, Co Down, BT35 8QP

St. Leonard's is a suburban detached house on the east side of Dublin Road in Newry, built during the inter-war period. The building blends Art Deco detailing with the freestyle aesthetic associated with Voysey and Clough Williams Ellis, presenting a modern and distinctive appearance while maintaining the form and scale of a suburban dwelling.

The house has an L-shaped roof with hipped sections and natural slate covering, punctuated by two red brick chimneys positioned on the right hip and at the ridge meeting point. The eaves are boxed and overhanging, fitted with metal rainwater goods. The external walls are cement rendered with pebbledash finish, with smooth cement margins applied to corners, window reveals, and a smooth base course.

Windows throughout are typically side-hung three-panelled casements, each panel containing three panes with a fixed central pane and side-hung outer panels. These are set beneath soldier-coursed brick heads with concrete cills.

The road-facing front elevation comprises a gabled return section that steps back to the right. The entrance features a 'sunburst' glazed door with reeded-glass sidelights set within a recessed porch. The porch opening has a brick semicircular head and jambs, approached by two concrete steps. The house name is inscribed in stone set into the wall base to the left of the entrance. Two first-floor casement windows, each three panels wide, flank the gable. A larger similar window sits at ground floor level. On the right projection is a corner landing window containing seven yellow glass panes on each elevation.

The right elevation features a single-storey rectangular bay with a flat copper roof and corner window. The left elevation includes a recessed corner porch on its left side, formed by two cement-dressed piers supporting the entrance opening with a corner window within. To the right of this entrance, at ground floor level, is a projecting semicircular porch with a flat copper roof and French windows opening onto a small cantilevered concrete balcony fitted with a bracketed metal handrail.

The rear elevation incorporates a more recent single-storey lean-to addition with dashed walls and brick construction. This extension features a double-glazed plastic window with appropriate glazing panels and a modern kitchen door on its right cheek. A recessed corner porch stands at the right corner of this elevation. The first floor of the main rear elevation has three windows: the outer examples match those of the front first floor, while the central window, possibly serving a toilet, is a single panel wide.

To the left rear stands a garage with a monopitch corrugated asbestos roof (being replaced at the time of survey) and dashed walls with a raised soldier-brick parapet topped with concrete coping. The garage is accessed via a modern metal up-and-over door, with a sheeted timber side door.

The property boundary features dashed walls with smooth base and coping, interrupted by four dashed piers topped with soldier-coursed bricks and concrete copings. These frame a concave recess containing sunburst metal gates.
