Appraisal
An attractive, small-scale house that retains its original form, although much of the original fabric has been replaced leading to the erosion of much of the historic patina of the site. The house nevertheless remains an attractive feature in the streetscape, terminating the vista from the road to south-west, while the original wrought iron gates to the gateway contribute to the visual appeal of the site.
