Appraisal
This modest structure forms part of a large industrial mill complex, built into the large mill boundary walls with the finely tooled entrance gates located to the south. As part of an industrial complex that remains virtually intact, it is an important structure retaining its timber sash windows and unusual form containing four window openings to the first floor and three bays to the ground floor. This house, located near Clara Bridge, plays an important role in the industrial and architectural heritage of Clara.
