Appraisal
The best surviving example from a good quality terrace of simple but well-proportioned late nineteenth-century houses. (see 15310095 for rest of terrace). It retains its original character and form. The robust red brick chimneystack add incident to the roofscape, while the segmental-headed openings are a typical feature of the date of construction. It retains much of its early fabric and it is the only building along this terrace that has retained its early timber door. This building forms part of a good uniform terrace and makes a simple but pleasing architectural statement in its suburban location.
