About Fountain View
The National Inventory rates Fountain View Regional, one of 54 in Enniskerry. Fountain View dates from 1795–1805. 49 other places on the record stand within 400 m.
Double-pile end-of-terrace former house of probable early 19th century construction. The large flat-roofed shop addition detracts form original - reflecting the increased ‘commercialisation’ of domestic properties in the late Victorian / Edwardian period.

Questions about Fountain View
Is Fountain View on the National Inventory?
Yes: rated Regional (record 16302022).
Can you visit Fountain View?
Many historic buildings are private homes; this one can be seen from the street.
When was Fountain View built?
Its National Inventory record dates it to 1795–1805.
Is Fountain View protected?
Being on the National Inventory or the Sites and Monuments Record is a record, not protection by itself: buildings are protected by their council’s Record of Protected Structures, which each council keeps and no national open list gathers, so this page can’t say which are on it.
