Recognisably one of A.N. Bromley's works for Boots (e.g. compare Image]), this time with H.G. Watkins. Built in 1915. Pevsner is critical, describing it as "another misguided attempt to carry on the town's half-timbered tradition. Yet with alien pargeting and 'Ipswich' windows". Grade II listed. Boots is still here.
