Appraisal
Built as part of a pair of semi-detached houses, this building retains many of its original features such as a fine round-headed door opening and timber sliding sash windows. Like many of the buildings along this street, this house has been built into the hill side and has a three-storey rear elevation, giving impressive views of the harbour.
