Appraisal
This house, built as part of a group of five houses and one of three identical houses forming the centrepiece of the terrace (with 22501783 – 4/WD-5632-21-801 – 2), is an attractive middle-size range that retains its original form and some of its early character. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (22501781, 3 – 5/WD-5632-21-799, 801 – 3), is an attractive feature of the townscape of Waterford, situated on a slightly elevated site, and following the topography of the locality through the use of a slightly stepped roofline.
