Description

The ground floor is constructed of red brick, flints, and stucco, while the upper part is faced with weather-boarding. The roof is tiled. The glazing bars are missing, and there is a modern shop front. This building is included for its group value with Nos 22 to 28 (even), which form a group with Barrack Hall on Chantry Lane.
