Appraisal
This attractive farmhouse, with its classically proportioned symmetrical facade, exhibits some interesting features that belie its humble status. Its regular form is enhanced by the survival of features such as the simple spoked fanlight and round-headed timber sliding sash attic window. Though now disused, the overall character and form of the building and its yard has remains substantially intact.
