Terraced three-bay four-storey former house, built c. 1760, now in use as retail outlet and flats. Pitched slate roof with rendered parapet and rendered chimneystack. Rendered walls having platbands at sill levels of upper floors. Timber sliding sash windows to upper floors. Timber shopfront, c. 1880, comprising of carved consoles, fascia and cornice, with replacement pilasters, surrounding replacement door and window. Gate to former integral lane. Retaining interior features.

This former house forms part of an interesting group with the adjoining terrace on the west side of North Main Street and with the terrace on the east side of the street. The scale and form of these buildings make a positive contribution to the streetscape. Built on the site of the medieval city, many of these buildings contain archaeological fabric. This former house retains parts of a fine late nineteenth-century shopfront, which is a significant feature of the building. The survival of notable features and materials, such as the timber sliding sash windows, slate roof and render detail enhance the architectural heritage value of this former house.
