A picturesque, small-scale house, built as one of a terrace of five identical units, retaining its original form and massing, together with a range of important salient features and materials, which enhance the historic quality of the site. The house is of particular importance in the locality as a representative example of the small-scale dwellings built for/by fishermen operating from the nearby strand and harbour. Positioned on a prominent site on the approach road into the village from the north the house, together with the remainder in the terrace (22817071/WD-27-17-71), forms an attractive element of the street scene.
