The ground floor has been rebuilt and painted, with modern shop windows and additional windows above, one of which on the south front is leaning forward.

The modern shop front includes a single similar addition with glazing bars arranged in twelve squares. The building has tiled roofs. Nos 1 and 3 King Street, along with No 2 Market Street, form a group.
