console brackets and cornice, central panelled pillar with

HISTORIC NOTE: A photograph forming part of a 1911 advert for
'Sigley's China Store' at 96 High Street (qv) shows the same
basic form of shopfront but without the central panelled pillar.
This suggests the latter may have been introduced for structural
reasons.
