This former Quaker meeting house forms part of a significant group with the related building to the east. Built in the first part of the nineteenth century, these buildings are interesting reminders of the religious diversity of the city at that time. The building is articulated by the pedimented central breakfront and ashlar limestone dressings, and is enhanced by the retention of notable features and materials, such as the timber sliding sash windows, slate roof and stone steps.
