End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey house, built c. 1880. Pitched slate roof, crested clay ridge tiles, red brick corbelled chimneystack with projecting cap, profiled cast-iron gutter supported on moulded yellow brick corbelled eaves course. Red brick walling laid in Flemish bond, granite plinth. Square-headed window openings, granite sills, painted timber two-over-two sliding sash windows. Segmental-headed brick-arched door opening, painted timber pilasters on granite plinths with console brackets supporting frieze, cornice and plain-glazed fanlight, painted timber door with four flat panels, granite threshold. House fronts directly onto street.
This house was built as part of a terrace of eleven similar houses fronting onto Bachelors Walk. The house makes a positive contribution to the streetscape and the retention of original features and materials is worthy of note, as is the varied materials used in the construction of the façade which create an added interest in this modest structure.
