Appraisal
A good quality and well-proportioned mid nineteenth-century terraced house, which retains much of its early character and form. The sixth house of an elegant terrace of six. Its pleasing symmetry and the retention of the original doorcase with surround make this house a pleasant addition to the streetscape. The wrought-iron railings, cast-iron gate posts and wrought-iron gates add attractive incident to Patrick Street.
