Appraisal
The fenestration of this house is typical of architecture dating to the mid-nineteenth century. The slate-hung addition is a notable feature. Common to this area, this method of weather proofing allows the wall to breathe, while simultaneously protecting it. This house forms part of a group of houses built along Moore's Road in the mid-nineteenth century.
