Appraisal
An attractive late nineteenth-century house, which retains its original form and character, despite the loss of some of its original fabric. This house displays some decorative invention using basic materials, such as the use of two-tone brick and the decorative lintels above the ground floor openings. The presence of a carriage-arch, the only one along a terrace of ten properties, adds additional interest to this property. It remains an important component of the streetscape.
