11 Sandy's Street, Newry

This is one of four three-storey houses with attics, symmetrically arranged around a central coach arch on the south side of Sandys Street. This building stands immediately to the left of the shared coach arch with number 10. It is three bays wide, though the second-floor front room and attic above actually belong to number 10.

The pitched roof is covered in modern artificial slate with a modern skylight to both pitches. A rendered chimney rises on the left gable. Half-round metal gutters with a downpipe run down the left side of the facade. The street-facing walls are painted and line-rendered.

A canted bay on the left rises to the eaves and is topped with a finialed artificial slate hipped roof. The ground floor displays banded rustication. A plain projecting cill course runs at first-floor level, with a moulded cill course and moulded cornice at second-floor level. Platbands run below each of these courses.

The front door is a four-panel painted timber original door with a rectangular transom. The left bay contains 1/1 sliding sash windows to each face with granite cills; identical sash windows appear to the upper floors of this bay. To the right of the door is a segmental coach arch with an infilled head and platband running across the facade. The arch contains a pair of tongue-and-groove sheeted doors. The bay containing the front door has 1/1 sliding sash windows at first and second-floor levels; the door is slightly offset to the right of the window above. Above the coach arch are similar but much narrower windows to each floor, with the top window belonging to number 10. All windows feature stop-ended chamfered reveals and granite cills; the top windows are diminished in height.

The right and left gables form party walls with adjoining houses. A rendered brick wall separates the house from the footpath. Two granite steps lead from the street to the path, with another granite step to the front door.

The rear wall is cement-rendered. A two-storey return abuts the building at its middle. To the right of this return is a 1/1 sliding sash window to each floor of the main block, and above the return is a 1/1 sliding sash window to the half-landings between first and second floors. To the left of the return is a coach arch at ground-floor level with unrendered brick inside faces. Above this are 1/1 sash windows to each floor. The return has a pitched natural slate roof with a skylight in the left pitch and rendered walls. It has one window at ground-floor level and one at first-floor level on the left side. The right side contains a central door with 1/1 sliding sash windows either side (the right one boarded up). Above are two 2/2 sashes in line with the windows below. A tall chimney rises from the back gable of this return, which is itself abutted by a one-storey lean-to with a corrugated asbestos roof. This lean-to has a sheeted timber door on its right side and a small two-pane fixed window on its left side.

The rear yard is enclosed by a two-storey outhouse shared with number 12. This has a pitched natural slate roof and random rubble granite walls with brick dressings to openings. A sheeted timber door is at ground-floor level on the elevation facing the house. To its right is an opening with a sheeted timber shutter with vertical timber bars. At first-floor level are two openings: one above the door is open with vertical bars, and the one to the right is a six-pane fixed light.
