A brick modillion eaves cornice runs along the roofline, which is covered with slate. Number 51, known as Ketsby cottage, has a painted cobblestone front with brick dressings and quoins. A brick addition is present at the North end, and the South front of number 51 has no windows. The East front has three glazing bar sash windows, each beneath a cambered arch.
