Concrete flagged footpath to front.
Appraisal
This house, one of a group of three and possibly originally part of a larger group of houses, has been extensively renovated in the late twentieth century leading to the loss of much of the original fabric, yet retaining most of the original form to the first floor. The house is of social interest as one of the earliest remaining houses on Main Street. The replacement shopfront to ground floor is not a positive addition to the composition and a future shopfront might be installed in keeping with the proportions of the original building. The house is of importance for continuing the established streetline of Main Street, and for contributing to the varied roofline of the terrace.
