The windows are recessed 12-pane sashes, with painted stone sills and wedge lintels; one window is on the ground floor of number 24, and two windows are on the ground floor of number 26. The first floor of number 24 has two windows, while number 26 has one window on each side of a sandstone panel inscribed "EH:J:1855." The interiors have not been inspected.
