This house, built as one of a pair, is an attractive, small-scale range that retains most of its original form and character. The house is of social and historical significance, representing the expansion of the historic core of Newbridge in the mid nineteenth century. Composed on a symmetrical plan of graceful balanced proportions, the house, together with the second in the pair to left (south-west; 11818009/KD-27-18-09), is an attractive feature on the streetscape of Eyre Street, continuing the established streetline of the street while contributing to the varied roofline of the terrace. The house retains many important early or original salient features, including timber sash fenestration having early glazing.
