Our History
The Singer building is significant as part of the terrace and for its streetscape value. Two of the most influential architects in Cork in the early 19th century, the Deane brothers and the Pain brothers, were instrumental in the laying out of Washington Street. The street epitomises a sense of symmetry and proportion.
The Singer shop is a landmark building in Cork and has been on site since the 1870s. The ground floor shop was remodelled in the 1930s and 1940s.
The floors above the shop retain a number of 19th century finishes and detailing, including an open well stairs; six-panel doors; fluted window and door architraves; decorative cornices and ceiling roses, and fireplaces. Externally, the Georgian multi-pane sashes and the Victorian shingle pane sashes reflect the changing fashions of the 19th century.

“Exceptionally helpful, straight talking and friendly service. I wanted to buy an overlocker machine and was scared about just buying one in a box from Argos as they are quite a complex piece of equipment. I got to see a machine close up in the shop.I was able to thread and try out the machine myself before making a purchase. The model I bought was the same model that the staff use to do all their alterations in the shop. This gave me peace of mind that it was a reliable model. They also threw in 8000m of thread for free to get me started. Highly recommended to anyone thinking about buying a new machine.”
