House, now offices. Late C18, restored in late C20. Red brick in Flemish bond and gauged; darker and lighter red brick to ground-floor. 2-span roof of tile, each one hipped. EXTERIOR: 3 storeys. Curved front of 3-window range. In the centre of elevation a flat-arched entrance with overlight of decorative glazing bars. The entrance is set in an aedicule consisting of fluted Tuscan pilasters and entablature with dentil cornice as well as modillions; segmental pediment with raking cornice of same design. The jambs and soffits to the inner doorcase are panelled. All windows are camber arched with lintels of gauged brick; the sashes and frames of those to the ground floor are set nearly flush with the wall plane while those above have deep reveals. To either side of entrance are 2 windows; the sashes in these and all other windows are of an original 8/8 design, though many are certainly of recent fabrication. Ground floor has pale red-brick dressings to party walls, window dressings and a dado range which comes nearly to the height of the window sills; the intervening spaces are filled with dark red brick in header bond. There is storey band of 2 bricks' thickness between the ground and first floors and of 3 bricks' between the first and second floors. Brick entablature with brick dentil cornice to the second floor. Stacks to party wall. The interior of the ground floor has been much altered and retains few original features.
