Appraisal
This nineteenth century former house is one of the few three-storey buildings on Eustace Street, contrasting with the four-storey frontage characteristic of the street's eighteenth-century grandeur. It retains good-quality brickwork and windows which contribute to the historic quality of the both the building and the streetscape.
