Rendered parapet wall with heavy cornice to roofline and rendered chimneystack. Rendered walls having cast-iron ties. Square-headed openings having render surrounds and replacement uPVC windows. Those to first floor having render pediments and consoles. Timber shopfront comprising pilasters having recessed panels with consoles having fish scale patterns, cornice and fascia.

Square-headed opening having overlight and timber panelled door.
Appraisal
Forming the terminus of the terrace, this attractive former house displays similar proportions, fenestration rhythm and decorative render details to those of the adjacent buildings and therefore make a positive contribution to the streetscape. The early twentieth century shopfront is particularly well preserved and presented.
