This interesting and quirky looking building on Northumberland Street began life as a 19th Century house. It was later transformed into a shop and now forms part of a bustling shopping street. Its façade is ornately decorated with plaster, which was added in 1953 to commemorate the Coronation of Queen Elizabeth II. The building is four storeys high with a stylish box window on its first floor, and a sandstone elevation on the side. LOCAL LIST
