Terraced two-bay three-storey house with dormer attic, c.1875, possibly incorporating fabric of earlier house, pre-1840, on site with pubfront to ground floor. Refenestrated, c.1950. Now disused to ground floor. One of a group of six. Pitched (shared) slate roof with clay ridge tiles, replacement rendered (shared) chimney stack retaining terracotta or yellow terracotta pots, rooflight, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves having iron ties. Rendered, ruled and lined walls with rendered quoins to ends. Square-headed window openings with cut-stone sills, and replacement one-over-one timber sash windows, c.1950. Timber pubfront to ground floor with chamfered pilasters on cut-granite padstones, fixed-pane (two- and three-light) windows, timber panelled door on cut-granite step or threshold having overlight, timber panelled door to house on cut-limestone step having overlight, fluted (volute) consoles supporting entablature, and fascia having slate-lined moulded cornice. Interior with timber panelled shutters to window openings. Street fronted with concrete footpath to front.

A well appointed Classically-proportioned house of modest size built as one of group of six units (including 15605013 - 14/WX-29-05-13 - 14) contributing positively to the streetscape aesthetic of John Street with particular emphasis at street level on account of the survival of an early pubfront of artistic design interest displaying good quality craftsmanship. Having been very well maintained, the house remains as the last in the group to present an early aspect with the elementary composition attributes surviving in place together with most of the historic fabric, both to the exterior and to the interior, thereby upholding some of the character or integrity of the collective ensemble in the street scene.
