Square-headed window openings, with bracketed stone sills and timber sliding sash one-over-one pane windows, having shouldered moulded surrounds to second floor and render surrounds to first floor. Arcaded round-arched openings to ground floor with painted moulded render archivolts and having decorative moulded capitals to chamfered pilasters.

Appraisal
Arcading to the ground floor is characteristic of many commercial premises in this town, and the moulded detail to the capitals is an example of fine craftsmanship. The variety of features to the openings creates a distinctive façade, and its scale and form are complementary to the character of this streetscape.
