Appraisal
This house, built as one of a terrace of eighteen identical units, is an attractive small-scale building that retains its original form and character, together with important salient features and materials. Presently (2003) undergoing restoration, replacement fittings are being installed in keeping with the original integrity of the design. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (22502431, 608/WD-5632-21-1451, 639), forms an attractive uniform streetscape along O’Brien’s Street.
