Appraisal
This building forms part of a terrace with a number of similarly sized and proportioned structures, making a positive contribution to the rhythmic streetscape. The early twentieth century shopfront is a charming addition to the streetscape. It shows evidence of Art Nouveau influences in its abstracted floral motifs which provide the pilasters with delightful decorative detail.
