Appraisal
This building occupies a prominent site opposite Mallow Bridge and on a corner site. Its modest size is typical of town houses of its era and its façade is enhanced by features such as the shopfronts and lettering, which add artistic interest and context to the site. The timber sash windows and slate roof are other notable features.
