Appraisal
Part of a long terrace of houses of various ages and styles, this well maintained early twentieth-century house displays a highly detailed and striking facade. Its regular fenestration is enhanced and the façade unified by the use of decorative render mouldings to the front elevation. This house is integral to the architectural unity of the terrace and streetscape and the cast-iron railings and gate are of very high technical and artistic quality.
