Pair of semi-detached three-storey houses, built c.1800, having two-bay ground floors flanking integral central carriage archway and sharing five-bay upper floors. Pitched artificial slate roof having rendered chimneystacks over gables. Roughly-coursed rubble limestone walls, rendered to north gable, with brick surrounds to all openings and having cut-stone voussoirs to carriage arch with recent plaque over inscribed '1850'. Replacement uPVC windows. Replacement timber panelled doors flanked by engaged columns and having spoked fanlights.
This imposing pair of houses towers over the adjoining buildings. Their form and proportions are intact and the building contributes greatly to the streetscape of the town.
