Appraisal
The narrow tall proportion of this building ensures it conforms to the terrace, while also giving coherence and character to the streetscape. A delicate skilfully crafted shopfront is a noteworthy feature which greatly enlivens the façade at ground level. The form and elevation of this building is greatly enhanced by the retention of the small-paned timber sliding sash windows.
