This building occupies a prominent site on Main Street and beside the clock tower. Its regular façade is similar to the surrounding structures and adds to a coherent streetscape. It retains much of its original form and fabric and notable features such as the timber sash windows, which enhance the regular façade. The symmetry of appearance is carried through in the double shopfront to the ground floor, which is well executed and adds artistic and decorative interest to the site.
