The first floor has recessed round arches with keyblocks and an impost string, while a sill string is present on the second floor. A 20th-century dormer breaks the eaves. The ground floor has a 20th-century three-light shop front with a doorway on the right, and a house doorway on the left that features a 20th-century six-panel door. The interior has not been inspected.
