These are three circa 1810 stucco-faced houses located on Market Place. They have been altered with shop fronts on the ground floor. Numbers 2 and 3 share a parapet with swept coping at either end. Number 4, instead of a parapet, features a later wood balustrade with turned balusters and terminal piers. A moulded cornice runs across the front, flanked above the ground floor by partly fluted pilasters. Each house has two dormers.

Number 2 has three windows; the outer ones are tripartite recessed sashes with intact glazing bars. Number 3 has four recessed camber-headed sash windows, also with intact glazing bars, flat arches with voussoirs and keystones. Number 4 has two wide sash windows with intact glazing bars, set in flush frames with fluted pilasters and moulded cornices that project forward.

The ground floor features mid-19th century shop fronts. Number 2 has two large windows of four and three lights with thin mullions, a splayed marginal glazed door with fielded panel and rectangular marginal glazed fanlight. A deep frieze and moulded cornice run across the front. Number 3 features a recessed side door (the entrance to "Waterloo House") with four moulded panels, a female head knocker, a large rectangular fanlight, panelled reveals and panelled pilasters. An adjoining shop window has three large thin mullioned lights and projects with a frieze and cornice matching Number 2. Number 4 has a good mid-19th century double shop front with five-light windows bowed outwards from the door, thin mullions, one additional light to the right, and a shallow rise articulated by small turned balusters. The shop door has one fielded panel and a rectangular fanlight, with a panelled soffit projecting to the front. Scroll brackets with leaf ornament and "Medusa" heads are positioned to the left and right of the front, supporting the frieze, although these are partially obscured by a blind case. The moulded cornice has an anthemion band, a row of rosette blocks below, and pendent finials.

Numbers 2 to 4 form an important group with Number 1 Church Street.
