26, Mainguard Street (Galway)

Ireland / Galway / Galway / Mainguard Street, 26
 house, listed building / architectural heritage

The prominent corner siting of this building, close to St Nicholas' churchyard, gives it a significance beyond its modest exterior. The late nineteenth-century appearance disguises a mid-sixteenth-century house, the only obvious evidence for which is the fine limestone plaque that links the Martin and Lynch families, two of the most prominent in medieval Galway.
