Appraisal
This house, probably originally part of a larger four-bay composition with building to right (south-west) and which has been extensively renovated to accommodate a commercial use leading to the loss of much of the original form and most of the original features and materials, is primarily of interest for its age (it is one of the earliest houses on Main Street, built contemporaneously with Castletown House) and for continuing the established streetline and roofline of the terrace.
