Appraisal
Within a terrace of Georgian townhouses, this well proportioned structure's architectural design and detailing is finely treated. The plain façade contrasts with a highly ornate doorcase, accessed by a set of tooled limestone steps and curving cast-iron railings. These features work together to create an aesthetically pleasing building.
