Appraisal
This house is a larger version of its neighbour to the north, but shares many of the same features and is typical of this street of fine town houses. It is enhanced by the retention of timber sash windows and cast-iron railings. The irregular spacing of the bays is a distinctive feature of this building and the carriage entrance links the house to its rear yard.
