Appraisal
Elegantly-proportioned and substantial, it retains its original form, despite alterations, together with notable features and materials. The ornate door surround, with finely carved engaged columns, provides artistic interest to the façade. Set back slightly from the line of the road, it is an attractive feature in the streetscape, while the cast-iron railings contribute to the historic character of the site.
