Appraisal
This building forms one of a pair located on Station Road. The façade is enlivened by decorative features such as hood mouldings, a gabled bay, sash windows and tooled limestone sills. The pair makes a positive contribution to the streetscape which has unfortunately lost much of its historic fabric.
