Appraisal
An appealing small-scale house that retains the original form and massing, together with much of the historic fabric. The house is of particular significance having been sponsored by the Duke of Devonshire as accommodation for workers on the Lismore Castle estate, and makes a positive contribution to the streetscape value of New Street.
