Two-over-two timber sash windows to first floor window opening and to front of bay, one-over-one to side of bay window and timber casement window to basement. Much cylinder glass. uPVC to rear. Gauged brick elliptical-arched door opening with a stop-chamfered tripartite timber frame containing a timber-panelled door with two glazed panels framed by sidelights with timber panels and overlights.

Appraisal
Built as a pair with No. 18, this house retains most of its original external features and forms an important part of this late nineteenth-century section of an otherwise Georgian streetscape.
