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 22501782 – 3/WD-5632-21-800 – 1), is an attractive middle-size range that retains most of its original form and character, together with important salient features and materials. 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.
