House, now office. Mid-late C17, altered. Bargate rubblestone with red brick dressings and to returns. Plain tile roof. Two storeys and attic, two bays. Recessed late C20 shop front not of special interest; above it, deep modillion cornice having frieze with projecting ovals and lozenges and tile weathering. First floor: brick pilaster strips rising into paired round-arched panels between bays; two wide windows with flat brick arches and four-light, leaded, iron casements with cusped canopies; double cornice with half-rounded dentils to lower cornice and modillions to upper cornice which supports c19 decorative metal gutter.

Attic: band of I-shaped pilasters with taller pilasters above to the two shaped gables each of which has a two-light window with flat brick arch and leaded iron casements, roundel frieze and dog-tooth band below cornice, and triangular pediment with lozenge in tympanum. Concealed roof with end stack to left and right end half-hipped. Rear: C20 extension masking ground floor and much of first floor, not of special interest; traces of former first floor window openings visible; first floor cornice; two two-light, small-pane attic windows in shaped, pedimented gables; brick stacks with coupled flues to left side and right corner.

Interior: chamfered beams with lambs tongue stops to ground floor; late C19 decorative iron spiral stair down to cellar.

Similar in style to numbers 74-76A (q.v.) which are dated 1663, and another interesting example of C17 decorative brickwork.
