Appraisal
A substantial and well detailed house with a shopfront inserted at ground floor level. Like its neighbours it is three-storey and it marks a transition from the taller terrace to the north to the lower terrace to the south. The building has a strong presence in the streetscape enhanced by the render detailing, used for the window architraves, moulded eaves cornice, and quoins. The symmetrical shop front and entrance doorway to the private accommodation above are well integrated under the framed fascia.
