Square-headed window openings (remodelled, c.1985, to ground floor) with stone sills, and moulded rendered surrounds, c.1910 (replacement concrete sills, c.1985, and rendered surrounds to ground floor). Replacement timber casement windows, c.1985.

This house is an attractive and well-proportioned composition that retains most of its original form to the upper floors. The house is distinguished by an important rendered pubfront of artistic significance, together with the surrounds to the window openings, all of which attest to high quality local craftsmanship. The house is an important component of the streetscape, forming the corner linking Lower Yellow Road with Philip Street.
