dc.descriptionThe Bishop's Palace, depicted here, was 'designed by local architect John Roberts. This is one of a cluster of building in the immediate vicinity by him: City Hall and Christchurch Cathedral being adjacent. Built in a very austere classicism, it was intended to be the Bishop's Palace but is now used by Waterford City Council. The two main facades are quite different: one having seven bays - the central bay having an more elaborate window treatment and a Gibbsian doorway; the other facade has eight bays with a more elaborate entrance and shallow pediment with blank niches.'
