Square-headed window openings to first floor, painted stone sills, painted timber one-over-one sliding sash windows; painted timber casement window to east.

Appraisal
This modestly proportioned house is one of the last surviving early nineteenth-century buildings on this recently rebuilt street. The late nineteenth century pub front enlivens the modest structure as do the timber sliding sash windows, carriage arch and wheel guards.
