McElligott

End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1870, having shopfront to front (east) elevation. Pitched slate roof with render copings, cast-iron rainwater goods, render eaves course and red brick chimneystacks. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls. Square-headed openings having concrete sills and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed opening with glazed overlight over timber panelled door. Shopfront comprising render pilasters supporting timber fascia having painted lettering and cornice. Square-headed display windows with external timber shutters. Recessed square-headed opening having glazed overlight double-leaf timber panelled doors.

An appealing, modest building of particular importance as it retains its simple, yet elegant shopfront. The shopfront retains salient timber features, such as the decorative double-leaf door and flanking pilasters. The simple form of the house reflects a subtle design of balanced proportions, which makes a valuable contribution to the streetscape.
