Semi-detached double-pile three-bay two-storey over basement house, built c. 1885, having single-bay two-storey extension to east. Canted end bay to south (rear) elevation. Pitched slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, some with replacement uPVC, and painted sills. Square-headed opening having overlight and timber panelled door. Pair of square-profile chamfered piers to north with double-leaf cast-iron gates.
Unusual house incorporating both classical features, such as elegant proportions and fenestration rhythm and late Victorian features such as the canted bay. The house retains its sash windows and slate roof which further enhance the structure. This house is one of three identical houses built on adjacent plots on the High Road.
