The windows are sash windows in plain reveals, most retaining glazing bars, with some inserted ventilators. A second-floor entablature and prominent cornice are notable features. The top floor windows are flanked by panelled pilasters, and the building is topped by a cornice and blocking course with blocks above the pilasters.
