The building stands two storeys high and has double boarded doors on the left, which are of two different heights, and a double door on the right. Above the right door is a large glazed workshop window with eight vertical lights. The central window on the first floor has five vertical lights. The workshop is connected to No. 22 by a boarded wall and a door leading to a side passage. This building is included for its group value with nearby structures.
