Square-headed window openings with chamfered render pilasters, having painted moulded sills to second floor, canopy details to first floor. Elaborate timber and render shopfront to ground floor with moulded bracketed cornice having cast-iron cresting, egg-and-dart detailing, dentils, female masks to consoles, decorative capitals and fluted and panelled pilasters with moulded plinths.

Fixed timber display windows with moulded sills. Square-headed entrance opening to upper floors with replacement glazed timber door.
Appraisal
A terraced building which retains its character and form, much high quality detailing being evident in the shopfront, such as the inclusion of cresting to the cornice and the masks to the consoles. The porch and recessed doorway imply a shop of superior quality, which recognises the impact of a well defined entrance.
