Appraisal
Set back from the street line behind walls and with a front garden, this house is an interesting addition to this city centre streetscape. While the setting of the house is suggestive of a residential area, the building is located within the central medieval part of the city. The regular form of the building is articulated and enhanced by the decorative render detail, and it retains notable features and materials, such as the timber sliding sash windows and cast-iron railings.
