Appraisal
Substantial former house of typical mid nineteenth-century eclectic appearance, incorporating a range of distinctive features, which enhance the architectural value of the composition, together with fine detailing in render, which contributes to the artistic design quality and character of the structure. The fine shopfront is a well-executed addition to the streetscape.
