Appraisal
This house, built as part of a small-scale development including the house immediately to south-west (22501800/WD-5632-21-819), is an attractive building that is distinguished in its immediate locality by its construction in red brick. Retaining most of its original form (the remodelled dormer attic does not impinge on the primary (south-east) front), the house is not enhanced by the appearance of the replacement fittings to the openings. The house incorporates an attractive red brick shopfront to the ground floor, which is of some artistic design quality.
