To the right, there is a tripartite shopfront featuring a central door with a segmental-arched and glazed upper panel, along with a painted fanlight and tiled stall risers. The single plate glass windows have timber frames. Above, there is a painted frieze board with gold lettering that reads 'GOODFELLOW & STEVEN. Bakers', and a modillioned cornice. The first floor has three windows with lagged architraves, an eaves course, and a bracketed cornice.
