Square-headed window openings, red brick flat arches, patent rendered reveals, painted limestone sills, and replacement uPVC windows. Timber casement window to basement level, c. 1980. Three-centred arch door opening, with red brick arch, rendered reveals, limestone threshold step, and inset doorcase comprising: half-engaged Composite columns supporting entablature of fluted frieze with rosette detailing, and modillion cornice, which breaks forward over orders. Original lead detailed fanlight with some original glass, and replacement raised and fielded panelled timber door. All opening onto limestone front door platform with wrought-iron bootscraper, which is arrived at by a flight of limestone steps, and is flanked by painted stone plinth walls supporting wrought-iron railings with spearhead finials.
