Appraisal
This building forms part of an interesting pair of early nineteenth-century houses with the adjoining building to the east. This pair makes a positive contribution to the streetscape, due to the scale and form of the buildings. The building forms part of a significant terrace which is located in a notable position in the urban landscape. The simple, well-executed timber shopfront is a particularly interesting feature, as shopfronts such as this one are becoming increasingly rare in the city.
