Appraisal
A house representing an integral component of the domestic built heritage of Westport Quay. A prolonged period of unoccupancy or neglect notwithstanding, the elementary form and massing survive intact together with substantial quantities of the historic or original fabric, thereby upholding the character or integrity of a house making a pleasing visual statement in the Quay Hill.
