Pitched slate roof with overhanging eaves having rendered chimneystack, cast-iron rainwater goods and recent flat-roofed dormer window. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls with moulded render string course to first floor. Camber-headed window openings having render sills and uPVC casement windows to upper floors. Recent timber shopfront comprising incised pilasters surmounted by fluted consoles, fascia board and cornice.

Square-headed door openings with glazed timber and timber panelled doors with overlights.
Appraisal
Though some historic fabric has been replaced, this former house is of a similar scale and proportion to many of the buildings in the town's historic core, and remains an integral part of the terrace. It retains wide eaves, camber-headed opening and lined-and-ruled rendered walls which add to its traditional character.
