Appraisal
Stretching along Main Street, this impressive structure spans five bays. and incorporates two shopfronts and a square-headed integral carriage arch. Though the shop is no longer used, its shopfront retains its classical architectural features, typical of the nineteenth and early twentieth century. The first and second floors of the façade have been united in style with the application of moulded stucco architraves to the square-headed windows openings. Enlivening the front elevation, the surrounds also attractively frame the hornless six-over-six timber sash windows. The result is a pleasing exterior that contributes greatly to the locality.
