🏭 Heritage-listed building
Built: c.1865 · NIAH rating: Regional
A considerable amount of architectural detailing in the timber bargeboards, carved finials and bundled chimneystacks make this building an eye-catching addition to the streetscape. The cruciform roof, gables and dormer windows give it a strong Victorian character. Set on a prominent corner site, its scale, massing and siting on a rise close to the bridge, make it an imposing presence in the surrounding area. The building, formerly known as Davys Pub, was occupied by members of the Irish Citizens Army during the 1916 Easter Rising, when the strategic location adjacent to the bridge was used to open fire on British soldiers attempting to enter the city centre from Portobello Barracks.
