End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey house with dormer attic, built 1913, retaining original fenestration. Extended, c.1940, comprising three-bay two-storey flat-roofed lower return to south-west. One of a terrace of three. Pitched (shared) slate roof (gabled to dormer attic window) with clay ridge tiles, red brick Running bond (shared) chimney stacks, timber bargeboards, and cast-iron rainwater goods on moulded red brick eaves. Flat felt roof to return with cast-iron rainwater goods on timber eaves. Painted rendered, ruled and lined walls with red brick band, and moulded course to eaves. Square-headed window openings (in bipartite arrangement to ground floor) with stone sills, and moulded rendered surrounds. 1/1 timber sash windows. Segmental-headed door opening with rendered hood moulding over, and timber panelled door with leaded stained glass overlight. Set back from line of road with section of wrought iron railings and concrete brick cobbled footpath to front.
A small-scale house, which has been well maintained, retaining its original form and character together with important salient features and materials. Rendered detailing of artistic merit, together with red brick dressings, serve to produce an attractive aesthetic effect. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (22504197 - 8/WD-5632-22-187 - 186), is a distinctive feature in William Street, the gabled dormer attic window providing incident to the roofline of the streetscape.
