Appraisal
An attractive, well-proportioned house, built as part of a scheme involving a second house immediately to south-west. The house is in very good condition and retains its original form and character, together with important early and original salient features and materials. The later rendered detailing to some openings is of some artistic merit. The house, together with the second in the group (22504398/WD-5632-22-387), is an important component of the streetscape, contributing considerably to the historic character of the terrace.
