Terraced former pair of two-bay four-storey former house, built c. 1835, now in use as retail outlet. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystack. Rendered walls with timber sash windows to upper floors. Carved timber shopfront, c. 1900, comprising of pilasters flanking fixed windows and panelled doors, having fascia and consoles above.
This former pair of houses makes a notable and positive addition to the streetscape, due to the scale and form of the building. The building retains many interesting features and materials, such as the timber sash windows and slate roof. The full-width shopfront is a particularly notable feature of the building, as it was clearly executed by skilled craftsmen, and simple well executed shopfronts such as this are becoming increasingly rare.
