Painted roughcast walls with rendered band to eaves. Square-headed window openings with cut-limestone sills, and replacement one-over-one timber sash windows, c.1925. Square-headed door opening with timber panelled door having overlight. Interior with timber panelled shutters to window openings. Road fronted with concrete footpath to front.
Appraisal
A pleasant middle-size house probably originally built as a single-storey composition: the variance in the dimensions of the openings between each floor, particularly where those to the upper floor are larger than those below, suggests that the house was not originally conceived as an integrated composition and is the product of at least two phases of construction. Having been well maintained the house presents an early aspect with substantial quantities of the historic fabric surviving intact both to the exterior and to the interior, thereby contributing significantly to the character of the streetscape.
