Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Red brick walls with brick eaves detail, raised quoins and window heads, and with carved limestone plaque to front elevation. Square-headed window openings with one-over-one pane timber sliding sash frames and limestone sills. Shopfront comprising render fascia, render pilasters with fluted capitals, cornice, fixed windows and timber panelled and glazed double-leaf door with overlight; replacement uPVC door serving to upper floor. Corrugated-metal door to square-headed carriage arch.

This building retains its original form, which is enhanced by decorative elements such as the cast-iron balcony and carved limestone plaque. The oriel window breaks up the regularity of the bays and the building is enhanced by retention of its ornate fascia, decorative pilasters and cornice.
