Appraisal
This house, although comprehensively renovated in the late twentieth century leading to the loss of most of the original materials, is a fine, symmetrically-planned substantial house composed of Classically-derived graceful proportions. The house is of some social and historic significance, representing the continued development of the historic core of Sallins in the mid nineteenth century. The house is of importance due to its contribution to the low-lying quality of the streetscape in the centre of the village of Sallins. The house, together with its neighbour to west (11811014/KD-19-11-14), is an attractive feature from the canal to north.
