THE GLIMMERMAN Heritage

🏭 Heritage-listed building

Built: c.1870 · NIAH rating: Regional

Attributed to J. J. O’Callaghan, this elegantly-proportioned building makes a strong impression on the streetscape. Elaborate stone detailing, to the upper floors as well as to the shopfront, enliven the façade and add textural interest to the streetscape. Carved capitals and gargoyles are testament to the skill and craftsmanship of stonemasons in the later decades of the nineteenth century, as well as the interest in Gothic revival motifs at the time. The steeply pitched roof is another Gothic revival feature and makes a positive contribution to the streetscape. Stoneybatter was one of the approaches from the north to the fair in Smithfield, which led to the large number of public houses on this street.
