Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Some replacement rainwater goods. Rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with two-over-two timber sash windows and limestone sills. Some replacement windows. Round-headed door openings with moulded render architrave, timber panelled doors, fanlights and limestone threshold steps. Some replacement doors.

This terrace forms a fine example of domestic architecture in the first half of the nineteenth-century. Set perpendicular to the main street, it forms a distinct enclave, particularly with the railings and gates to its front site. The western end of the terrace contributes to the streetscape, particularly with the retention of early fabric to this elevation. The railings and gate contribute to the streetscape as does the regularity of the roof.
