Appraisal
This house and small former shop are likely to have incorporated or replaced a more modest building on the same site from the earlier nineteenth-century laying out of this street. Its retention of historic fabric from this period contributes to its character which in turn forms part of the traditional appearance of this street. The render quoins pleasantly bookend the building.
