Appraisal
An elegantly-proportioned middle-size house, built as one of a pair (with 22821120/WD-31-21-120), which retains its original form and early fabric throughout. Of particular interest is the fine shopfront to ground floor, which is of artistic design merit, while what appears to be an early commercial interior also survives intact. The house, together with the second in the pair, forms an attractive feature of formal quality in the streetscape.
