Appraisal
Renovated in the early twentieth century with the insertion of the Gothic Revival style Y-traceried sash windows and the fine shopfront, this building is an interesting addition to the streetscape. The shopfront is one of a number of important historic shopfronts in the town, which are unusual for their quality, craftsmanship and survival.
