Appraisal
Though this attractive and compact house, set within mature grounds, has been altered, it exhibits a simple symmetrical and well proportioned design. As a house of minimal enrichments, the ashlar chimneystacks stand out as a noteworthy feature along with the fine door surround. Together with its outbuilding, it makes for a picturesque site.
