Appraisal
This is an attractive example of a terraced building, decorated in a simple style characteristic of mid nineteenth-century urban architecture. The simple, classically inspired façade is in keeping with the terrace and overall makes a valuable contribution to the street, whilst providing a fine example of a late nineteenth-/early twentieth-century shopfront.
