This house forms a bookend end-of-terrace house, within a uniform terrace of four modestly-scaled Edwardian houses, which employs a palette of materials typical of the region. The front site boundary walls make a significant eye level contribution to the streetscape, while the terrace, which is set back considerably from the pavement, gives a localised sense of enclosure.
