Appraisal
Built as one of a terrace, the form and proportions of this building contribute to the coherence and character of the streetscape. The well-crafted shopfront is a noteworthy feature which greatly enlivens the façade at ground level. The elevation is greatly enhanced by the retention and variety of timber sliding sash windows.
