9 Cloughmore Terrace, (aka 32 Great Georges Street), Warrenpoint, Co Down, BT34 3HP

A three-storey terrace house built in 1879, now subdivided into three flats. The building is one of eight properties comprising Cloughmore Terrace, a significant terrace group in the town, though alterations have affected its original character. It is situated on the north-west side of Great Georges Street, set behind and to the south-east of the main row of Cloughmore Terrace on Church Street.

The front elevation faces south-east and is asymmetrical in composition. The rendered façade features moulded in-out quoins (though missing at ground floor level on the left side) and a moulded eaves course. The principal entrance on the ground floor, positioned to the left, comprises a replacement panelled timber door with semicircular fanlight, both surrounded by a moulded frame with small keystone detail. To the right is a narrow window with a replacement PVC frame. The first floor carries two similar windows set on a cill course; the left window has a moulded surround with keystone. Two shorter windows occupy the second floor in similar arrangement. The rendered finish is painted throughout.

The south gable is partly obscured by an abutting two-storey property but is exposed at second floor level, where a very small centrally positioned window with what appears to be a single-pane timber frame breaks the wall surface. This gable is finished as the front façade but lacks quoins to the east side.

The north gabled elevation contains a second doorway positioned just right of centre at ground floor level. This doorway comprises a panelled and glazed timber door with rectangular fanlight, protected by a projecting timber hood. Directly above at first floor is a window with timber frame and what appears to be a concrete cill, indicating this opening is not original to the building. A smaller window at attic level has a similar concrete cill and single-panel timber frame. This gable is finished as the south gable but without quoins to the west side.

The rear (west) façade is partially abutted by a separate two-storey property, which may originally have been a return belonging to this building. On the exposed section to the ground floor stands a window with a two-pane top-hung timber frame and concrete cill. A similar but slightly shorter window sits directly above at first floor, with another window (PVC frame) at second floor level. A smaller window with top-hung timber frame is set at an intermediate level between the first and second floors. The rear is finished without quoins.

The roof is gabled and appears to be covered in artificial slate. Chimneysstacks have been removed. Rainwater goods are a mixture of metal and PVC.

The terrace was built in 1879 as part of the Cloughmore Terrace development, apparently constructed under the ownership of the Bank of Ireland, which retained the freehold of the entire group. Valuation records do not specify dimensions but annotated plans show no. 9 marked with a projecting bay similar to the main terrace on Church Street, though this feature does not appear to have been executed in the finished building. The first recorded occupant was Eliza McClelland, resident between 1885 and 1889, followed by a succession of relatively short-term tenants including Thomas Marron (1889–90), Thomas J. McCormick, Edith Godfrey, and Vincent Crawford. The freehold was acquired from the Bank of Ireland in 1906 by James Savage. The house was subdivided into three separate properties around the 1980s.

The building retains Group Value as part of Cloughmore Terrace, though its character has been diminished by inappropriate replacement window frames throughout and the internal subdivision. The setting remains significant within the townscape despite these alterations.
