Appraisal
A handsome former terrace of three houses, with projecting bays and gables which break up and enliven the plan, façade, and roofline, in the style which was fashionable in contemporary Victorian architecture. It forms part of a group with the terraces further to the east and west, which are of a similar form and design. The fine render detailing adds much to its historic character.
