Evaluation

A pleasing shopfront, probably recently renovated, on a 19th cent. building on site of mid 18th cent. structure. Makes a good contribution to the street façade with its traditional small shopfront. However with its reduced historic fabric it is not considered to be of special architectural or historic interest.
