The roof is hipped and tiled, featuring a projecting eaves cornice supported by brackets. The building is constructed of gault brick, with gauged flat brick arches above the recessed sash windows. The second-floor windows have glazing bars. A wooden shopfront is present, complete with an entablature and a dentil cornice, along with projecting shop windows. Carriage entrances flank the shopfront; the eastern entrance has a semi-elliptical arch and a fielded and panelled door. The building contributes to the group value of numbers 16 to 46 (even) on Market Square.
