Appraisal
This building, originally part of a larger composition that was truncated in the early twentieth century, has been much renovated, leading to the loss of most of the original features and materials. The building is primarily of importance for its retention of an early shopfront - of social and historic interest as early evidence of the commercialisation of Naas - and for continuing the established streetline of Main Street North.
