Appraisal
This building is part of a terraced pair that is currently used as a single retail unit with the upper floors serving as domestic residences. The building retains historic features including sash windows, these themselves are unusual as the windows are not set deep into the window openings like the neighbouring buildings. The building adds variety to the terrace and makes a positive contribution to the immediate surrounds.
