Appraisal
An attractive and well maintained former house, whose earlier character remains apparent, particularly in the steeply pitched roof. The upper floor fenestration pattern is interesting, with three windows set together in the main section of the house, with the fourth window set centrally over the carriage arch. The later shopfront is a simple and well designed addition.
