Appraisal
This building forms part of a terrace of similarly formed structures, which together add coherence and make a positive contribution to the streetscape. The symmetry of the façade adds to the regular streetscape and is enhanced by the retention of timber sash windows. The shopfront addition adds context to the site and adds artistic interest. The recessed door and gated threshold are attractive and unusual features.
