23 Sandy's Street, Newry, Co Down, BT34 1EN

This is one of a group of five three-storey, two-bay terraced houses located on the south side of Sandys Street in Newry. The building dates from 1820 to 1839 and was previously recorded in the Windsor Hill ward. It was delisted on March 29, 2006.

The building's structure remains largely intact, but it has undergone extensive remodelling and has lost most of its original features and character, making conservation area protection more appropriate. The roof is pitched and covered in natural slate, with a cement-rendered chimney on the left side and a rendered verge on the right. Semicircular metal rainwater goods are visible on the front facade, with a downpipe shared with the adjacent property at number 22. The rear has plastic rainwater goods with a downpipe on the right. The street facade is finished with painted line render, featuring a raised eaves course.

The main entrance, on the right side, is a modern six-panel, raised and fielded timber door with a narrow transom light above. There is no bracketed entablature above the door. To the left of the door, a single sliding sash window with an exposed box is present. Three irregularly spaced, identical window openings are found on the first and second floors; the right-hand windows align with the door, and the top floor windows are reduced in height. All windows have granite cills. The rear wall is cement rendered. A two-storey extension abuts the left bay and continues as a single-storey section to the right. First and second floor windows on the right side of the main block are modern, top-hung timber windows. The extensions have flat roofs. The rear yard is enclosed by wet-dashed, painted walls, with a single-storey gabled outhouse located to the rear. A modern door and two modern windows are present on the rear wall, with a modern top-hung window above.

The property appears on an 1835 Ordnance Survey town map, and a Valuation revision book from 1838 identifies Hugh Chambers as the occupier. The 1863 Valuation revision books describe the building as being 19 feet long by 21 feet wide and three stories high. The building is likely to be the one shown on the 1835 map.
