An appealing small-scale house of modest appearance, possibly sponsored by the Duke of Devonshire for workers on the Lismore Castle estate, which retains its original form and massing, together with some important early features and materials, which enhance the historic quality of the composition. The house makes a positive impact on the visual appeal of New Street, and, together with the remainder of the houses in the terrace, contributes to an attractive, low-lying quality in the streetscape.
