Appraisal
This modest terraced house exhibits subtle decorative render detailing, which highlights its architectural form and also enlivens an otherwise plain façade. Of particular note is the mask to the door opening which adds an artistic touch, and together with other features, attests to the skill of local craftsmanship.
