Appraisal
This former coach house, originally built as an integral component of the grounds of the former Glebe House to south-east (11804040/KD-11-04-40), is an attractive small-scale range that retains most of its original form and character, despite a subsequent conversion to an alternative use. Many early or original features and materials remain intact, including timber sash fenestration and a slate roof having cast-iron rainwater goods. The former coach house is an attractive feature on the streetscape of Pound Street, and is accompanied by gates and sections of railings of early iron, and a fine gateway surmounted by a finial.
