Appraisal
The mid twentieth-century vitrolite and tiled shopfront to this building is a unique example of this type along Main Street. The majority of shop fronts are timber, making this example an important feature in the streetscape. The tiled floor to the entrance is a further noteworthy feature of this structure.
