Appraisal
This building forms part of an interesting group with the adjoining terrace on the east side of North Main Street and with the terrace on the west side of the street. The scale and form of these buildings make a notable and positive contribution to the streetscape. Built on the site of the medieval city, many of these buildings contain archaeological fabric. The materials utilised in the construction of this building, such as the red brick and grey stone add colour and textural interest to the surrounding area.
