Appraisal
A small-scale house retaining most of the original form and massing but the historic character of which has been undermined by comprehensive renovation works that have led to the loss of much of the original fabric: the survival of some early joinery to the interior is of particular importance as a consequence. A very fine Classically-detailed pubfront of artistic design merit displaying expert craftsmanship significantly enhances the external expression of the site by contributing to the visual appeal of the building at street level.
