This house forms part of a fine early nineteenth century terrace, which is full of interesting architectural details. It forms part of a group with the adjoining four houses which were built in the nineteenth century to accommodate the growing middle class. The survival of the original fenestration is notable, while the high-quality ironwork contributes to both the setting of the house and to the streetscape. The rare copper insurance plaque is also noteworthy.
