Appraisal
The tall and elegantly proportioned façade of this terrace makes it an impressive feature on the street. The doorcases form the decorative focus for this well composed trio. In common with many houses in the area, this terrace occupies the most elevated position on its site, maximizing the south facing light and views. The delightful cast-iron pedestrian gates enhance its setting while also adding character to the streetscape.
