THE FERRYMAN Heritage

🏭 Heritage-listed building

Built: c.1810 · NIAH rating: Regional

Originally two separate houses, occupied by Michael Scanlon and James Lynch in the 1850s when the Griffith Valuation was carried out, it is probable that these buildings served as offices and shops as well as houses by that time. The trade directories in 1862 list Scanlon as a grocer and ship builder, while No.36 is recorded as a 'ship smiths' run by Charles Doherty. Today this distinctive building is set in a highly visible location near Samuel Beckett Bridge. The red brick façade contrasts with the recent fabric of the surrounding buildings, making it an important reminder of the early appearance of the quayside, and lending traditional character to the surrounding area. The carved stone doorcase, timber sliding sash windows and diminishing fenestration are noteworthy features.
