Appraisal
This well proportioned building is of a form typical of traditional houses in Skull with symmetrical fenestration, centralised doorway and gabled chimneystacks. The timber shopfront enlivens the façade and gives character to the building. The retention of the timber sliding sash windows and corbels compliment the fine shopfront. The building makes a positive contribution to the streetscape.
