Appraisal
A group of early twentieth-century terraced houses, plainly detailed but enlivened by contrasting brick detailing around the openings, and contributing to the variety and architectural heritage of the streetscape. Although each has been modified and refurbished since construction, the houses retain early architectural features of interest. Good timber doorcases with decoratively carved console brackets give character to their exteriors.
