Appraisal
A well-proportioned modest-scale house incorporating distinctive features, including a box oriel window together with rendered detailing in the form of Tudor-style timber framing, which is a feature shared in common with further buildings in the immediate locality, all of which enhance the architectural value of the composition. Reasonably well maintained, the front (north-east) elevation retains most of the original from and character, together with important salient features and materials, and contributes significantly to the streetscape quality of Chapel Street.
