The former fire station, built in 1902, is now a restaurant. It is constructed of brick with stone dressings that have been painted. The building is two stories tall and has nine bays, with a domestic-style block on the left side that features two stories and an attic, comprising three bays. At the rear, there is a tower. The ground floor has a cornice, while the first floor features a sill course, a top frieze, a cornice, and a parapet. Most of the first-floor windows have architraves and friezes, and are sashed with glazing bars. The ground floor includes eight large entrances with folding doors set between Doric antae, along with a small blocked window in the end bay. The domestic block has the first bay projecting forward under a gable with a top segmental pediment. The ground floor features paired segmental-headed windows that are sashed with glazing bars, and the entrance to the right has paired windows on the first floor with a two-light attic window above. There is a flat-topped dormer to the right and two banded stacks. The top stage of the tower has three-light windows, a cornice, and a parapet with segmental-headed panels.
