Appraisal
Though many interesting features and materials have been replaced, this building retains a fine shopfront which is an interesting addition to the streetscape. This retail outlet is the only shop on Wellington Road, which is unusual for such a long street in an urban context. This shopfront retains many original features and materials, such as the pilasters supporting the entablature, the pair of timber panelled doors and the toplight.
