A second survey of all of Northern Ireland's building stock is underway and aims to update the first list of special architectural or historic interest buildings, which began in 1974

Four mid-Victorian buildings in South Belfast are set for listed status, after City Hall lent its support to the proposals.

The second survey of all of Northern Ireland's building stock, is currently underway, to update and improve on the first list of buildings of special architectural or historic interest, which began in 1974. This second survey in Belfast was due to be completed in 2017 but is ongoing. It is noted for the craftsmanship in the brick detailing to the chimneys, elongating the proportions of its modest size. The building retains its original timber sliding sash windows, and has a signature etching by the first resident, John Jackson. It is proposed for a B1 listing.

No 86 is of significance for the level of retention of historic fabric, both internally and externally with good brick detailing, original sash windows, staircase, plasterwork, and joinery. It has the original basement arrangement with stone steps and original metal railings and front boundary walling in brick with stone dressings. Both are proposed for a B2 listing.

It has associations with Edmund T Chipp, the organist and composer, Evelyn Greer, a prominent figure in sports and disability, as well as several other notable local figures. It is proposed for a B1 listing.
