Appraisal
Built as part of an imposing terrace, this house forms an integral part of the historic streetscape. Situated on an elevated site overlooking the Bride Well River, the building's rear gardens stretches up to the site of the old town walls. It retains many traditional features and fabric, including arched openings, timber sliding sash windows and a fine doorcase.
