Timber shopfront comprising panelled pilasters and colonettes on rendered plinths, surmounted by scrolled brackets, architrave, frieze with painted signage and stepped corbelled cornice. Square-headed window openings with timber sills having fixed timber-framed single and multiple-pane display windows over rendered stall risers. Square-headed door openings with double-leaf timber panelled doors with single-pane overlights. Rendered enclosing wall to rear having circular-profile rubble limestone gate piers with red brick and rendered caps and corrugated-iron gates.

The fine shopfront is a particularly noteworthy feature in a town which has lost much of its authentic historic shopfronts to historical pastiche.
