Appraisal
This house forms part of an interesting terrace overlooking the river, which is a notable and imposing piece in the urban landscape. Constructed of red brick, these buildings are a colourful addition to the streetscape. The building retains many interesting features and materials, such as some original windows to the rear, a fine flight of limestone entrance steps and railings, as well as some interior fixture and fittings. These interior features include a fine staircase, timber architraves, and some timber and stucco arches.
