Appraisal
A well-composed substantial house, built as one of a terrace of four houses (with 22821139 - 41/WD-31-21-139 – 41), which retains its original form and massing, together with substantial quantities of the early fabric, contributing to the historic quality of the composition. The house, together with the remainder in the terrace, forms an appealing feature of formal appearance in the streetscape of Church Street.
