Appraisal
Forming a pair with its neighbour and a group with structures of similar design and date to north and south, adds curious façade to roadscape and fine front elevation to shoreline. Retains notable features such as tripartite windows and much of its form and fabric. Bracketed eaves add artistic interest as do round-headed window surrounds. Piers and gate to pedestrian entrance enhance site and add to roadscape.
