Appraisal
This house has been extensively renovated to ground floor in the late twentieth century to accommodate a commercial use, although the original form and early fabric is retained to the first floor. The results of the alterations to ground floor are unclear at present, the shopfront now disused and concealed by an iron roller shutter. The original form and fabric ought to be retained in the course of future renovation works. The house is of considerable interest for its impact on the streetscape of Main Street, continuing the established streetline of the planned street while contributing to the regular roofline of the terrace.
