Abstract: |
A former Co-op store, in use as a Meeting House since 1991, retaining its attractive shop front. The building is of medium evidential, historical, aesthetic and communal value. Evidential value: The primary evidential value of the building is in the shop front, denoting its original function. Historical value: The building was erected in the early twentieth century as a store serving the local mining community, and as such has medium historical value. Aesthetic value: Although modest in size, the building is prominently placed on a corner site, and its attractive shop front makes a positive contribution to the local scene. The secondary elevations have low aesthetic value. Communal value: The building's Quaker witness and useful (albeit modest) facilities have communal value. |
