Appraisal
This prominently sited house and shop retains much of its original character articulated in the simple render fascia with raised lettering, window surrounds and quoins. The broad frontage directly addresses the road and presents a simple, but strong façade to the roadscape and greatly enhances the architectural heritage of the area. It forms a pleasing group with the nearby bridge.
