Appraisal
This attractive thatched building is a fine contributor to the architectural heritage of Clarinbridge. It retains interesting features, notably a thatched roof and timber sash windows. The broad street frontage, made up of several formerly separate properties, is an integral component of the townscape, and contributes positively to the visual appeal of the locality.
