Appraisal
This house, built as part of a terrace of six houses, is an attractive small-scale building that is of social and historic interest, representing an early form of local authority housing in the locality. Constructed of fine materials, the house includes early red brick to ground floor, with variety added to the façade through the use of roughcast to the first floor. The house retains some original features and materials, including a slate roof – the re-instatement of timber fenestration, using the original examples to the house to north-east as a model, might restore a more accurate representation of the original appearance of the house. The house, together with the remaining houses in the terrace (11814065 - 7, 69, 79/KD-19-14-65 - 7, 69, 79), is an attractive feature on the streetscape of the road leading into Naas from the north-east.
