Appraisal
An attractive modest-scale house contributing positively to the historic quality of the streetscape of High Street. The architectural quality of the composition is enlivened by elegant features including a Wyatt-style tripartite window opening while a simple traditional Irish shopfront displaying fine craftsmanship enhances the design importance of the site.
