Appraisal
A well-proportioned house, built as one of a pair, which retains its original form and character to the upper floors, together with important salient features and materials. The house is distinguished by the fine rendered detailing, which is of some artistic merit. The house, together with the second in the pair (22504009/WD-5632-22-09), is an important component of the streetscape and contributes to the historic character of the quays.
