Description
A three-storey commercial building on the north side of Fore Street. Now a shoe shop, with a modern ground floor projecting forward beyond the original frontage, but with a first and second floor that retain its historic character. The building is depicted on the 1876 OS Map and has a similar scale and general appearance to the adjacent Lloyds Bank, though with rendered (rather than exposed dressed granite) walling, embellished with decorative window and roof detail.
Included in the Redruth Neighbourhood Plan consultation list of Non-Designated Assets for Protection.
