Appraisal
Built as part of a larger group of three pairs, this turn of the century pair displays interesting features including canted bay windows, gablets and eye-catching chimneystacks. The red and yellow brick utilised in its construction adds colour and textural variation to the pair, as well as adding colour to the streetscape. The fine railings and gates are typical of its time.
