Merrion Fetal Care located at No.60 Lower Mount Street, Dublin, is a newly opened National Maternity Hospital facility delivering prenatal ultrasound, private consultant and fertility services. The Georgian houses at Nos. 58-61 Lower Mount Street, for many years in the occupation of the adjoining National Maternity Hospital, had stood in a neglected condition at the north-eastern corner of Merrion Square. Here they are as depicted in Dublin Civic Trust’s Wasting Assets survey back in 2000. Following an extensive renovation,
the group of four houses now exhibit on a large scale the traditional craft of brick pointing that has finally refined itself in the capital over the past few years. Prior to occupancy of No. 60 by the National Maternity Hospital, Allied Workspace was contracted to undertake a full modernisation of the interior of the building that included the following:
- Arched Glass Entrance Doors
- Single Glazed Fire Rated Partitions for offices and consulting rooms (30/30 rating)
- Fire Rated Glazed Screens within corridors and lobby (60/60 rating)
