Appraisal
An elegant and well-maintained house with its original facade proportions and the majority of the fenestration intact. The original door and doorcase are retained, and incorporate an unusual fanlight having circular panes and very slender curved glazing bars. Madore together with Wilton, which adjoins to the east, form an imposing pair of houses which are much larger in scale than the other buildings in this area.
