Appraisal
This substantial building is an integral part of the terrace to which it belongs. In keeping with the high architectural standard set by its neighbours, this handsome structure has several remarkable features, the most notable being the doorcase, which is set within a coved surround. The conversion of the exterior outbuilding has allowed the continuity of use, which prevents endangerment from dereliction.
