Appraisal
This medium-sized house has been altered throughout the years but still retains its original form and many interesting features such as the decorative railing to the balcony, timber wicket pedestrian gate and red-brick chimneystacks. The pebbledashed walls and contrasting red brick finishes provide visual interest to Farney Street and the form adds to the architectural variety of the town.
