ACA Grattan Hill, Lincoln Place, Hackett’s Terrace and Mahony’s Avenue
Statement of Character
Description of Area
1.53 The area, of architectural and historical significance, comprises three distinct sections: Mahony’s Avenue, Hackett’s Terrace, entered between a gap in the houses of the lower part of Mahony’s Avenue, and Grattan’s Hill/Wellington Terrace/Lincoln Place and Riverview Terrace. The area within the boundary is overwhelmingly residential in character, one commercial user and a primary school being the only exceptions.
1.52 The area is located to the south of Middle Glanmire Road and to the north of the former railway corridor behind the Lower Glanmire Road. It is bounded on the west by the boundaries of St. Luke’s Church, Victoria Terrace, and Clarence Terrace, Lodge and Court; on the north and east by the large gardens of the houses entered off Middle Glanmire Road. The only one of these houses set in their own grounds, Westboro, extends from Middle Glanmire Road to Mahony’s Avenue, and is therefore included within the boundary of the area.
