Architrave to ground floor opening has raised voussoir detail. All windows are replacement. Round headed entrance opening to ground floor accessed from four curved stone steps. Painted render doorcase with moulded archivolt having cornice and keystone detail. Separate entrance to upper floors is barrel vaulted with coffers on Tuscan columns.

Distinctive early twentieth century building, which has had its decorative elements painted to achieve maximum impact. The combination of opening styles and variety of ornamentation gives it a highly individualistic appearance, although its re-fenestration does not contribute positively to the overall effect.
