Pitched (shared) roof with replacement artificial slate, c.1995, clay ridge tiles, rendered (shared) chimney stack, replacement square rooflight, c.1995, and replacement uPVC rainwater goods, c.1995, on rendered eaves. Unpainted replacement cement rendered, ruled and lined walls, c.1995. Square-headed window openings with stone sills. Replacement uPVC casement windows, c.1995, with 1/1 timber sash windows to top floor. Round-headed door opening with replacement timber panelled door, c.1995, and decorative fanlight. Set back from line of road with forecourt having replacement steel railings, c.1995, on unpainted rendered plinth.

A well-proportioned house, built as one of a terrace of four identical houses, which has been extensively renovated leading to the loss of much of the original fabric. However, while the original form and massing remains intact, the inappropriate replacement fittings and materials throughout have not had a positive impact on the external expression of the composition. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (22830008 – 09, 11/WD-09-30-08 – 09, 11), forms an attractive feature of formal appearance in the streetscape.
