Appraisal
Built as one of sixteen houses in two terraces, this dwelling has an appealing modest scale, a theme continued throughout the entire group. Despite the installation of modern windows, this building has retained its original form which ensures that it conforms to the uniformity of the terrace, while also making a valuable contribution to the architectural heritage of the area. Features of note include the Tudor detailing, canted-bay window and decorative door surround which define and enliven the front elevation.
