Appraisal
A pleasantly-proportioned small-scale house built as one of a group of three, later four identical units (with 12003014 - 6/KK-4766-03-14 - 6) forming an assemblage of uniform appearance enhancing the visual appeal of the streetscape of Troy's Gate. The retention of the original form and massing maintains the positive impression made by the collective ensemble on the character of the setting: however, the gradual replacement of the fittings to the openings with ill-suited modern articles has not had a beneficial impact on the external expression of the composition.
