Appraisal
This is a good example of an urban structure that has retained its dual function of house and shop. Internally the shop retains its cast-iron column supporting the ceiling as well as other features such as its tiled threshold. The shop and house retain much of their original charm and character and the terrace of which it belongs forms an impressive block within the town.
