This is a late 18th-century shop and dwelling, with alterations made in the late 19th century. The building is constructed of grey brick with red brick detailing, and has a slate roof. It is three storeys high with a two-window front. The ground floor to the left has a shop front, and a two-panel, part-glazed door to the right. The first floor has two 16-pane sash windows. A flat brick band sits between the first and second floors. The second floor contains two 8-pane sash windows, where the lower sash is a single pane. There have been 20th-century alterations to form a shop on the ground floor.
