Appraisal

This house, built as one of a terrace of four identical houses, is an attractive and well-proportioned substantial composition that retains its original balanced form. However, the inappropriate replacement fittings to the openings do not enhance the visual appeal of the building. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (22504385 – 6, 8/WD-5632-22-401 – 400, 398), forms an important component of the streetscape, set back slightly from the line of the road, and the survival of the original iron railings contributes to the historic character of the group.
