Terraced three-bay three-storey house, built c.1800, forming part of a terrace of three. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls with moulded render surrounds to openings. Square-headed opening having replacement uPVC windows. Elliptical-headed door opening with moulded surround, having timber panelled door flanked by engaged columns and sidelights, having spoked fanlight above. Cast-iron railings set on limestone plinths and limestone piers to front.
This house forms part of a group of grand houses set back from the road at Denis Quay. The imposing scale and form of these buildings indicate that they were built as high status homes in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. While this building has been recently renovated, it retains much of its historic character, discernable particularly in the imposing doorcase which forms a delightful focal point.
