C20 openings to ground floor, cambered-arched windows, the top-floor window heads just below eaves level. INTERIOR: not inspected. HISTORICAL NOTE: an important area of the city at the time of their construction, built on since at least the early C18, being close to the west side of the parish church and east of the National School, built 1812 (demolished). No.17 probably part of the merchant's house, No.19 (qv); the area declined as a residential part during the C19 and particularly after the construction of the railway line in 1869. Reputed to contain medieval fabric, perhaps stone-built cellars. Noted as lodging houses on the Insurance map of 1902.
