Appraisal
This pleasant building forms an integral component of the terrace lining the north side of Talbot Street, which was laid out c.1840 following the sale of Tyrone House. The parapet height and fenestration rhythm of the terrace has been maintained, providing a pleasing sense of symmetry and consistency and making a positive contribution to the streetscape.
