Appraisal
A pleasant modest-scale house exhibiting early origins on account of characteristics including the grouping of the openings to the centre of the composition together with the slightly disproportionate bias of solid to void in the massing. The retention of most of the original composition attributes together with significant quantities of the historic fabric enhances the character of the site, thereby augmenting the contribution the house makes to the visual appeal of the streetscape.
