Appraisal
Though modest in design, this building forms one of a small group of identical terraced structures. The timber shopfront adds to the façade, contributing to the building's charm. The simple features that remain, such as the cow bars, which were vital for market day, hold historic interest, referring to an activity no longer in existence.
