This attractive former St. Mary’s Convent of Mercy and school displays varied decorative detailing from the elegant dog-tooth mouldings to the more robust rock-faced plinth. This decoration together with the contrasting brick and stone construction make this a striking landmark along Dublin Road. Now apartments.
