On the south elevation facing Edinburgh Road, there is a shop door at the center flanked by large plate glass display windows in the outer bays. The first and second floors have regular fenestration. The north elevation, facing Bruntons Close, features a piend-roofed square stair tower on the left side, with a door and two windows above on the right return, and regular fenestration in the bay to the right.
The west elevation is adjoined to No 4 Edinburgh Road, while the east elevation is connected to Nos 95-99 High Street. The first and second floors have 12-pane glazing in sash and case windows, with coped skews and ashlar gablehead stacks. The roof is covered with greyslates.
