Appraisal
An attractive, middle-size house, built as one of a pair (with 22511026/WD-24-11-26), which retains much of its original form and massing. However, extensive renovation works in the late twentieth century have led to the removal of much of the original fabric, and to the loss of some of the historic patina as a consequence. Nevertheless, the house remains an important element of the townscape, complementing the houses on the opposite side of the square (22511015 – 21/WD-32-11-15 – 7, 24-11-18 – 21).
