The first floor features tall sash windows and iron balconies, while the semi-basement windows have iron grilles. Both houses have round-headed doorways with reeded transoms and imposts, as well as fanlights. No 39 includes ground floor shutters and a cherub's head keystone above its doorway. The sash windows are fitted with glazing bars, and the buildings are topped with a slate roof. These houses are part of a group that includes Nos 35 to 54 and St Thomas's Church.
