Appraisal
Forming one half of a pair of semi-detached houses of differing designs, this pair makes an interesting contribution to the streetscape. Though the window fittings have been replaced and a glazed porch added, the building nonetheless retains much of its historic fabric intact. The timber panelled and glazed door, overlight and carved bargeboards and decorative render detail are among the surviving noteworthy original features. The adjoining house retains additional original fabric which could be used as a template for the reinstatement of this handsome pair's traditional character.
