Appraisal
Built as part of a terrace of ten, this terrace is part of a group of fine late nineteenth century houses, which along with the pairs of Eastern and Western Villas, form an interesting ensemble. The gabled front and canted bay window mark this and number 10 out as the end-of-terrace houses. Its prominent location overlooking the Owenboy River and enjoying a fine view of Crosshaven to the south, makes it a notable addition in the landscape.
