Appraisal
This house forms one of a pair of group of similar semi-detached houses erected on John's Place and John's Terrace. The building is enhanced by the survival of many of its original features, such as the simple decorative glazing bars to the timber sash windows. These features, combined with the canted bay window and ornate door surround with artistically detailed stained glass, enliven the building while adding architectural significance to this streetscape.
