Fixed window and glazed door, c. 1990.
Appraisal
The late nineteenth-century shopfront is a particularly notable feature of this building, and is a significant contributor to the streetscape, as few well designed and well executed shopfronts survive along St. Patrick's Street. The façade is enlivened by the recessed panels and render detail, and is enhanced by the retention of the timber sash windows.
