Appraisal
Although extensively renovated in the late twentieth century leading to the loss of much of the original fabric, this house retains most of its original balanced form, and distinctive features, including canted bay windows, and discreet rendered detailing, which enhance the architectural design quality of the composition. Positioned on a slightly elevated site, the house presents an attractive feature in the streetscape, although limited by the construction of a further building to the forecourt that obscures the vantage point of the house from Turkey Road.
