Why it mattered
Airmount House — Station Road matters for the exact reasons given in its official assessment, rather than merely because it is an old structure. The source records: This former shop takes advantage of its location on a prominent corner site, through the use of a wraparound shopfront. The large surrounds and pilasters give the idea of applied decoration to the façades, and the detailing of glazed tiles to the shopfront creates an interesting reflective surface. The intrusion of the upper floor surrounds into the roof is unusual in this form, and accentuates the eye-caching nature of this structure. This explains what the place adds to local life, the street or the surviving built history.
