Appraisal
The large size and scale of this building mark it out on its prominent site. The solid appearance is emphasised by the short end chimneystacks and full length shopfront to the ground floor. The regular proportions and symmetry of the elevation make a positive contribution to the streetscape. The shopfront is very fine and well-crafted and of an unusual variety. Its emphasis on decoration contrasts with the upper stories but is well integrated into the overall appearance of the structure.
