The interest of the building lies in the unusual Egyptianate style of the first floor architecture, using terracotta and tiles. It was built for the John Collier tailoring chain, probably in the 1930s.

Gaolgate Street
Like many small towns the buildings in Stafford town centre merit closer inspection at first floor level and above, often showing signs of their former glory when they were houses before they became shops. The bay widows appear to be a local style and may be a C19th addition to an earlier building.
