Appraisal
Similar in size and scale to its neighbouring buildings on the terrace, this modest building makes a positive contribution to the streetscape. Timber sash windows have been retained throughout, and the timber shopfront with its canted bay windows enhances the subtle symmetry of the façade, providing a focal point on the streetscape. Talbot Street was laid out following the sale of Tyrone House, in the 1840s.
