The building has a double-depth design and stands two storeys tall, with rear stacks on both the right and left sides, and a tall red brick gable end stack on the right. The fenestration is irregular, consisting of three recessed 16-pane sash windows, with two on the left and one on the right. The ground floor includes shop fronts, with the Oldfield shop occupying the entire right side. There is a half-glazed door at the center of the Polly Anna shop, situated between the two left first-floor windows, and a half-glazed door at the left end of the Oldfield shop front. The interior has not been inspected.
