Cement rendered finish over projecting smooth rendered plinth with a projecting moulded string course at first floor sill level. Segmental-headed window openings to the ground floor having cut stone sills, two-over-two pane timber sash windows and wrought-iron sill guards. Square-headed window openings to first and second floor with cut stone sills and two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows.

Appraisal
An interesting and handsome house, which has a strong presence in the streetscape and retains much of its early character. The proportions of this building suggest it was built in the early nineteenth-century and altered c.1900 with the addition of new doorcase and window openings to the ground. The importance and architectural integrity of this building are elevated by the retention of much of its early fabric.
