Appraisal
A mid-eighteenth-century former townhouse opening directly onto the street. The south end of St. Andrew Street was originally called Hog Hill and was laid out on land granted to Thomas Pemberton in 1643. While much of the street was rebuilt in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, some early houses remain. Part of a group of houses of similar date, located on the east side of St. Andrew Street, the property contributes to the architectural heritage and character of the area.
