The right-hand range has one window range featuring vertically sliding sashes with glazing bars, and moulded surrounds. There is a frieze and pentice board above the sashes. The right-hand side has a six-panelled door with a moulded frieze and a moulded canopy supported by brackets. Some exposed timber framing is visible, along with heavy chamfered bridging joists.
