Appraisal
This interesting building in the heart of the town retains many of its original features such as timber sash windows and a slate roof. The use of decorative roughcast render panelling, unique within Skull, enlivens the facade and creates a contrast with the smooth render surrounds. The unusual fenestration combined with the attention to decoration ensures that this building makes a unique and positive contribution to the streetscape.
