Appraisal
A well-composed middle-size house incorporating architectural features characteristic of the period of construction, including a canted bay window. Very well maintained, the house retains its original form and massing, together with a range of important salient features and materials, which enhance the historic quality of the site. Set at an angle to the street, the house contributes to the visual appeal of the street scene, while the survival of the original cast-iron railings to the forecourt augments the aesthetic quality of the streetscape.
