Appraisal
This house retains many of its principal exterior features including limestone steps up to front door, doorcase with decorative side-lights and lime render, although the character of the house has been affected by the replacement of the original windows. The building has added importance as one of five houses which make up the well-preserved group known as The Terrace, screened from the road by a row of mature beech trees.
