Square-headed window openings, red brick flat arches, patent rendered reveals, limestone sills and replacement uPVC windows; one-over-one timber sash windows to ground level, possibly originals with glazing bars removed. Original six-over-six timber sash windows to rear elevation. Three-centred arch door opening, patent rendered reveal, and inset doorcase comprising: flat-panelled pilasters, having fluted console brackets supporting lintel cornice; flat-panelled timber door with and plain radiating fanlight.

This terraced house forms one of a terrace of five relatively uniform terraced houses, and forms one of two which are without channel rusticated ground floor elevations on the terrace. It is compositionally united to the terrace by a shared parapet height, regular dimensions and architectural detailing. This house, forming the end-of-terrace, contrasts dramatically with the rendered two-storey neighbouring buildings the west forming the remainder of the streetscape.
