House, now offices. Mid C18. Painted brick with painted stone coping, cornice, platband, cills and dressings to the central upper windows; pantile roof and brick stack to right gable end. Double-depth plan with 2 gabled rear wings. 3 storeys; symmetrical 5-window range. The coped parapet and cornice are well above the second-floor windows; these are 3/6-pane sashes under flat gauged brick arches, except that to centre which is a Venetian window in a plain architrave moulded to the outer edges with Gothic glazing bars to the central sash. Windows to first floor, under a platband, are similarly spaced 6/6-pane sashes, that to centre is tripartite in a similar architrave to the above. C20 shop-front. The rear left wing has flat gauged brick arches to C20 windows; that to right has concrete lintels to first-floor left and flat gauged brick arches to small paired 2/2-pane sashes to the second floor. C20 ground-floor rear extension. INTERIOR: The upper floor levels of the 2 ranges to left are higher than the rest of the building, suggesting that it was formerly a separate building.
