Appraisal
An attractive, small-scale house, built as one of a terrace of four identical units (with 22803067, 69 - 70/WD-08-03-67, 69 - 70). Subtle detailing, including red brick dressings to the openings, serves to enliven the architectural design quality of the composition, while the gablets provide incident to the roofline. Very well maintained, the house presents an early aspect with important salient features and materials intact, which contribute to the historic quality of the terrace. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace, forms a pleasant feature in the streetscape, and contributes to the visual appeal of the locality.
