The central entrance is an arched planked door with strapwork hinges, set in a gabled porch. At the rear, there is a hipped roof. To the right, No. 47 projects as a single-storey shop front, built in the 19th century, featuring a hipped slate roof and a plate glass shop front with a glazed door on the ground floor right.
