Two-bay two-storey house to south with render shopfront to front (west) elevation. Pitched artificial slate roof having rendered chimneystacks. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls with render quoins and plinth course. Square-headed openings having ornate render surrounds, concrete sills and replacement uPVC windows. Shopfront comprising render pilasters, ornate consoles, fascia with raised lettering and cornice. Square-headed openings having replacement uPVC windows and flanking pilasters. Square-headed opening with timber panelled door.
These buildings were formerly built as a pair, and retain much of their original form including salient features such as the render window surrounds and shopfront. This simple shopfront is an interesting feature of the building, as shopfronts such as this are increasingly threatened by more elaborate replacements.
