The shop on the right also has a recessed entrance with a fanlight, flanked by 19th-century shop windows. Above these shops, the fenestration is regular, featuring two canted slate-hung dormers with bow-fronted roofs.
On the west elevation, which adjoins No. 14, the upper part of the gable is exposed, showcasing a stack made of stugged ashlar.
