Appraisal
The scale and form of this building make a notable and positive addition to the streetscape. The regular façade of the building is enlivened and enhanced by the decorative render detail, which was clearly executed by skilled craftsmen. The remains of the late nineteenth-century shopfront is an interesting feature of the building, and contrasts with the late twentieth-century shopfronts in the streetscape.
