Appraisal
Built as a pair with the adjoining former house to the west, this pair makes a positive addition to the streetscape, due to the scale and form of the buildings. The building is enhanced the retention of many interesting features and materials, such as the timber sash windows and moulded render detail. The fine late nineteenth-century carved timber shopfront is a particularly notable feature and was clearly executed by skilled craftsmen.
