The building has three storeys and features a band over the first floor, a moulded cornice, and an astragal, along with a blocking course. There is one range of late glazed sash windows. The ground floor has a 20th-century shop front with two entrances and curved plate glass. At the rear, there is a three-storey extension with three windows, constructed of rubble with brick quoins and dressings. Glance stones are present at the narrow opening to North Row.
