Appraisal
This building occupies a prominent site at a junction and at right angles to the neighbouring building, thus forming an open space to the front. The façade is articulated by render quoins. Emphasis is placed on the decorative elements, such as the heavy corniced shopfronts with their unusual patterning. The building retains a notable early door as well as much of its original form.
