Semi-detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1800. One of a pair with the building to the east. Pitched natural slate roof with rendered chimneystacks (chimneystack to east aligned along ridge) and cast-iron rainwater goods.

An appealing house which forms an attractive pair with its neighbour to the east (15321024). It is elegantly proportioned and retains original features such as the slate roof and timber sash windows. The chimneystack running along the ridge is an interesting feature, possibly indicating an earlier date.
