You may remember it from the architectue definitive stamp series in the ’80s.

I think it’s generally refered to as Queen Anne style.

Yes, that seems to be as a good a description as any.
Some vaguely French influences in there too, but nothing that can be really pinned down. It’s one of the few examples left in Ireland today of a public building before the advent of rampant classicism (though elements of it have always been with us).
And to think that much of the country’s stock was of this mongrel form of architecture before the Greek wigs came along – some great stuff.

It’s certainly not Palladian. At 1717, it would be too early by a handful of years, but stylistically it’s well outside the parameters- not symmetrical, naive detailing, etc. Queen Anne is close, but it also has echoes of that peculiar form of classicism prevalent in France in the 17th century- Jules Hardouin Mansart, Louis Le Vau, etc.
It can be “Queen Anne style” without being of the period too, remember; Ireland often had a time lag where architectural styles were concerned.
Proto-classical?

Paul,
I note you mention in the description the corner ‘brabazons’- should this be bartizans?
