Appraisal
This house, built as one of a pair, is an attractive small-scale building of diminutive proportions that retains its original form. However, the systematic replacement of the original fittings to the window openings with inappropriate modern articles has not had a positive impact on the external expression of the composition. Nevertheless, the house, together with the second in the pair (22501975/WD-5632-21-994), is an important component of the streetscape, and contributes to the character of the locality.
