Terraced two-bay three-storey house, c.1785. Reroofed and extended, c.1960, comprising two-bay three-storey flat-roofed return to north-west. Reroofed and refenestrated, pre-1999. One of a pair. Pitched (shared) roof with replacement artificial slate, pre-1999, clay ridge tiles, rendered (shared) chimney stacks, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Flat bitumen felt roof to return with timber eaves. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings (probably originally in bipartite arrangement to ground floor) with stone sills. Replacement timber casement windows, pre-1999. Square-headed door opening with replacement glazed timber panelled door, pre-1999. Road fronted with concrete brick cobbled footpath to front.
An appealing, modest-scale house, built as one of a pair (with 22809003/WD-21-09-03), which retains most of its original form to the road (south-east) elevation. However, the replacement fittings to the openings do not enhance the external appearance of the composition. The house, together with the second in the pair, contributes significantly to the streetscape value of Main Street.
