Nos 103, 105 and Howard Arms Public House, Lowther Street

Nos. 103 and 105, along with the Howard Arms Public House, are two houses that have been converted into two shops and a public house. They date from the late 18th century or early 19th century and have undergone later alterations. The buildings feature painted stucco walls and a graduated greenslate roof, which includes both original and 20th-century chimney stacks.

The left side consists of a two-storey, three-bay house that has been divided into two shops. The right side is a two-storey, three-bay public house, all under a common roof with a double-depth plan. The shops have modern paired doors flanked by shop windows, topped by an overall signboard supported by wooden pilasters. Above, there are sash windows set in plain reveals.

The public house showcases late 19th-century coloured tiles on the ground floor, made by Doulton & Co, Lambeth, which are divided into three sections by paired tile pilasters with leaf capitals. It features an off-centre panelled door with an overlight, and a left tripartite window with round-headed lights, along with two similar paired windows on the right. There is a modern signboard that matches the style of the scrolled tile lettering beneath the windows, which reads from left to right: "INDIA PALE ALES & MILD ALES / LAGER BEER & STOUT / WINES SPIRITS & LIQUEURS." Underneath the covering signboard, it states "HOWARD ARMS / SIR RICHARD HODGSON'S OLD BREWERY." The upper-floor sash windows also have glazing bars in plain reveals.

The interiors were refurbished in 1979. The buildings were taken over by the State Management Scheme in 1916, which led to the original lettering being boarded over until it was uncovered in 1979.
