The building is two storeys high, with three modern dormers set into the roof, which has a ridge tile roof with moulded boxed eaves and a decorative gutter. It is constructed of red brick, with a decorative brick course and a stone plinth. The ground floor features a square, projecting shop front to No. 16, built on a brick base and with wooden glazing bars. There is a glazed entrance door in the centre, and a continuous painted wooden band above displaying a shop sign. To the right of the shop front, at No. 14, is an 18th-century panelled door within a moulded frame, alongside a single sash window with bars. The first floor has five 18th-century sash windows with bars set within painted reveals.
