The terrace has two storeys and originally featured a sixteen-window range, although Number 9 is set back from the main block and is rendered in plaster with a three-window range. The windows are iron lattice casements, and have stone sills. Pilasters divide the front elevation. The roof is tiled (20th century) and features nine central chimney stacks.
