Appraisal
This building retains many interesting features and materials such as the timber sliding sash windows, timber panelled door and moulded render motifs. The character of this building remains substantially intact, and as part of a terrace contributes significantly to the overall streetscape, using the same building height and line as neighbouring buildings.
