Appraisal
This attractive substantial Victorian house occupies a prominent position in the town adjacent to Greenane Bridge and thus has a strategic visual contribution to the townscape. Despite recent alterations the building retains it original form and character which are evident in its proportions, steeply-pitched roof and fine gates and railings.
