No 1 features four sash windows with vertical glazing bars and a six-panel door with two lights.

No 3 also has an added brick canted bay with sash windows and glazing bars, and above the dormer is a three-light wooden casement with leaded lights in the four outer panes. Additionally, No 3 has a later wing at the rear and an early 19th-century door and frame with two lights.
