The central section of the building projects slightly forward and includes a window with a keystone and a carved brick lintel. The entrance is framed by Roman Ionic pilasters, topped with a pediment and a segmental moulded frieze, and has a rusticated surround with a keystone. The door itself consists of six panels and is set above a painted stone plinth. This building, along with No. 27, contributes to a cohesive visual group in the area.
