Detached four-bay two-storey former warehouse, built c.1810, abutting house to east. Now vacant. Set back from street. Pitched slate roof with red brick chimneystack, gable coping and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast render to walls with red brick eaves course and tie bars. Timber windows with stone lintels and red brick sills. Square-headed door openings with timber battened doors.
Located adjacent to the canal, at the height of canal transport this building most likely functioned as a building associated with the thriving economic and industrial activity of that time. Though now in a state of disrepair the building's architectural form and fabric allows it to contribute to the heritage of the town.
