The building features red brick construction with a gabled roof and a dentilled cornice at the ground floor, although No 78 has been altered.

This group of buildings also includes Nos 76 to 86, which comprise the Borough Treasurer's Office and Bank House, along with the Town Hall and its eastern and western outbuildings, entrance gates, piers, and lamps, forming a cohesive group with Nos 73, 101A, and 101B.
