MCDOWELLS Heritage

🏭 Heritage-listed building

Built: c.1865 · NIAH rating: Regional

This public house occupies a corner site on Emmet Road and shares similar scale and proportions with neighbouring buildings, making a positive contribution to a coherent streetscape. Its form is enhanced by render detailing such as its window surrounds and quoins, while timber sash windows add a patina of age. The survival of the shopfronts is significant, demonstrating the quality of craftsmanship in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Richmond House was a popular public house with the soldiers of Richmond Barracks, an infantry barracks built to the immediate south in 1810 and closed in 1924. The public house is of social as well as architectural interest, and is painted in the colours of Saint Patrick’s Athletic Football Club, with the rear of the building overlooking Richmond Park stadium to the north.
