Appraisal
This house forms part of a terrace of five modestly scaled former townhouses, continuing as a further terrace of seven houses and built at an angle following the curve of North Circular Road. It retains its fenestration pattern, a Doric doorcase and original front railings, adding to the overall composition of this attractive terrace of late Georgian townhouses.
