Description

The building has one framed bay and stands at one and a half storeys tall. A gabled dormer with three-light casements is present, along with a truncated end stack on the left side. The shop front, dating from the 19th century, includes two arched plate-glass windows on either side of a central recessed half-glazed door. To the right, there is a passageway with a 20th-century boarded door that has a segmental head.
