Appraisal
A significant eighteenth century house which was once in a rural location but is now surrounded by suburban houses. It is an interesting reminder of a time when this area was beyond the city sprawl. Its steeply pitched roof, gable chimneystack, elongated windows, and regular proportions are typical features of its time. Its first floor access is particularly noteworthy.
