M-profile roof, hipped to south, hidden behind front parapet wall with granite coping and cast-iron hopper and plastic downpipe breaking through to north end. Tall brick chimneystack to north party wall with clay pots, shared with neighbouring building. Redbrick walls laid in Flemish bond with cement pointing, largely rebuilt with flush concrete platband between second and third floors. Double-height glazed screen fills entire ground and first floors, with polished granite clad surround and geometric tiled reveals. Gauged brick flat-arched window openings with granite sills (possibly concrete to third floor) and replacement timber sash windows. Glazed doors open onto granite paved front area.
