The building is two storeys high with an attic containing three hipped dormers. It features six windows with sash glazing, flush frames, and glazing bars. The shop fronts are modern, except for number 8, which has an altered early to mid-19th century shop front featuring an entablature with a dentil cornice, an architrave, and pilasters, though the glazing is modern. Numbers 1, 1a, and 2 to 8 form a group of buildings of group value.
