built in 1905 as two fine townhouse residences: Dungloe's first semi detached houses. A newspaper advert from 1909: "Spacious semi detached villa to be let or sold, containing two reception rooms and six bedrooms, situated in midst of good shooting and fishing district". In October 1920, the National Bank Ltd. (from 1969, Bank of Ireland) opened a branch here.

A nice building for a bank. I like it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful architecture, and you know the bank will maintain it well.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if there are still living quarters on the upper floors. It's a nice looking building. It looks better suited as a residence.
ReplyDeleteIt looks a nice building.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Wow, for such an old building, it looks in really good shape.

ReplyDeleteThat was a very fancy front to the building.

ReplyDeleteI'm sure it must have attracted a lot of interest when it first hit the market.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bank building.
ReplyDeleteGood looking building.
ReplyDeleteGee, it still looks great after 115 years.
ReplyDeleteSo, I conclude houses were built usually really side by side? If a fire took off it took off for good?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful house, but, wee, am I glad I live today and not 100+ years ago!
I have an idea, though. Our condo has a toilet that was installed much later, too! Originally people had to go outside for their business...
OOooh would sure love to see those back in their 1909 days!!
