These are two buildings, number 54 and 56, on the south side of Friday Street. Dating from the 19th century, the buildings have a rendered facade topped with an old tiled roof and an eaves cornice. They are two storeys high, though the eastern bay slightly projects forward and contains a dormer window. There are three windows in total; the windows in the eastern bay have architraves with decorative friezes and labels above them. The windows are sash windows. An off-centre six-panelled door is topped with a bracketed hood and a plain fanlight. A reproduction bowed shop window is located at the western end.
