Appraisal
This house contributes to the integrity of the terrace of which it is part. Moulded details around window and door openings serve to enliven the composition. The decorative cast-iron railings and gates which flow all the way along the terrace further reinforce the unity. Hanley Terrace was built by and took its name from Dudley Hanley (1876-1946).
