Appraisal
An attractive, well-proportioned house, built as one of a pair (including 22830130/WD-09-30-130) that add variety to the streetscape by their position set back from the established streetline. Retaining its original form and massing, the house also incorporates features and materials dating to various phases of renovation works over a period of a century, all of which enhance the historic quality of the composition. The simple wrought iron railings to the forecourt enhance the aesthetic quality of the site.
