Description

The exterior features slate hanging on studwork between painted rubble piers that front the cross walls. It has an asbestos slate roof with a gabled roof dormer and projecting front eaves. There is a brick end stack on the right side. The building has a narrow double-depth plan and consists of two storeys with a one-window range. The central mid-19th century segmental-headed window is a four-pane hornless sash, situated above the original four-light shop front, which includes end pilasters with moulded caps and a fascia with a moulded cornice. To the left, there is a four-panel top glazed door. The interior has not been inspected.
