Appraisal
Located on the architecturally and historically significant John's Place, this terrace house unifies the streetscape, mirroring many features of design seen in its neighbours. Examples of elements include the six-over-six timber sash windows and the central doorcase, accessed by fine tooled limestone steps, which create a formal and attractive entrance.
