Appraisal
An appealing, well-proportioned house, built as one of a terrace of three (with 22821036, 38/WD-31-21-36, 38), which retains its original form and massing. However, extensive renovation works in the late twentieth century have led to the loss of most of the original fabric, and much of the historic patina as a consequence. Nevertheless, the house, together with the remainder in the terrace, forms an elegant feature on the planned square.
