ACA Sunday’s Well Sub-Area A: Village Centre
1.168 This sub-area of architectural, historical and social significance is located on each side of Sunday’s Well Road, above the escarpment overlooking the flood plain of the River Lee. It contains mixed range of house types, from older 18th C houses which predate the expansion of the city to more regular blocks of houses laid out to take advantage of the views south interspersed with shops, pubs, a church, and other religious buildings. The development of the area in the later 19th century is associated with staff from the Queen’s College moving into the desirable newly developing suburb.
