Appraisal
A well-designed, modest-scale house that makes a strong visual impact in the street as one of the few detached houses in a streetscape of predominantly terraced houses. Although now disused, the house retains most of the original form and massing, together with substantial quantities of the original fabric, contributing significantly to the historic quality of the site.
