Appraisal
The tall narrow proportions of this building provide a contrast to the broader lower buildings on either side, hence providing interest to the streetscape. The retention of features such as timber sash windows and the double-leaf door with chamfered panels add texture and a patina of age to the elevation. Definition and emphasis are provided by the brick block-and-start surrounds to the upper windows.
