Appraisal
This house is one of a planned group of nine forming a terrace on a busy street. The house, which is larger than the remainder of the terrace, is well proportioned and retains some original features. The painted red brick dressings and limestone masonry walls contrast, adding textural interest. The house is of particular interest as it incorporates the original carriage opening that would have been used to access the rear of the terrace.
