Victorian mid-terrace two-bay two-storey with attic polychromatic brick townhouse, built c.1883, of which only part remains. Rectangular on plan. Principal elevation faces South-east onto Fountain Street overlooking former industrial buildings to the opposite side of the street and set at the back of the pavement with Natural slate pitched roof. Built as part of a terrace row of fourteen similar houses of this type lining the North-west side of Fountain Street. South-east elevation is set in English Garden Wall brick bond with Victorian industrial brickwork dressings in contrasting colour; ornamental projecting brick cornice at eaves level with double band of black brick below; single segmental arch-headed window opening on the ground floor and two on the first floor; segmental arch-headed entrance door opening, one step up from pavement (with graphic panels depicting a six panel door at the time of survey). The front elevation is all that remains of the house and efforts have been made to stabalize this section by the addition of steel bracing and the replacement of masonry above the door opening. All openings have red brick voussoirs to heads with three black bricks to the centre forming a ‘key-stone’ detail. Continuous decorative brick stringcourse in contrasting black colour occur on ground and first floors at sills and heads with a further row of black brick separated by three courses of red above sill and below head level.
