The pitched roof is finished with artificial slate with corbelled eaves and cast-iron rainwater goods. Chimneystacks are rendered with plain caps and clay pots. The building is road fronted.
Appraisal
This tall building has a strong street presence. It adds rhythm and interest to the mainly 19th-century streetscape.
