This place is a representative example of an early shop and has historic value for its association with the development of the Maylands townsite, making a significant contribution to this
streetscape.
A pair of single storey shops with an elaborately decorated parapet that employs arts and crafts motifs, using a very tall vertical aesthetic with sweeping curves linking tall vertical elements. It is the tallest single storey structure in the centre. Shop fronts are replacements.
An integral part of the historic town centre which contributes significantly to the streetscape value and is one of the stronger elements. In the 1940s and 1950s both shops were connected by a large internal opening in the wall with Rose's Drapery on one side and a shoe store on the other. Later, one side was a lending library.
Integrity - high
Authenticity - Moderate
