Description

7, 8, and 9 St Patrick Street is a late 18th century, four-storey and attic, five-bay tenement featuring a two-bay coped central gable and a 20th century shopfront. The building is constructed from coursed sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings. It has a regular arrangement of windows with projecting sills and raised margins. The central entrance to the tenement is a timber panelled door set within a pilastered architrave. There are two flat-roofed dormers in the attic.

The windows predominantly have 12-pane glazing in timber sash and case style, although some have been replaced with plate glass. The building also features gablehead and ridge stacks with clay cans, and it is topped with a grey slate roof.
