Description
River View is a two-storey building constructed of painted brick, featuring a dentilled cornice and a slate roof. It has a symmetrical design with five bays and a central pediment that includes an oculus above paired entrances. These entrances have battened plank doors situated beneath timber canopies supported by ornate wrought iron brackets. Above the doors, there is a blind segmentally arched panel.
On the left side, there is a shop window that has been inserted into the left-hand bay, with an entrance to the shop located to the left of it. The gable end return features a projecting 19th-century small-paned bay window for the shop. The upper windows have been unsympathetically renewed within their original openings.
The right-hand section of the building includes a central entrance with a battened plank doorway and a canopy hood, flanked by a 12-pane sash window on the left and a 2-pane rectangular shop window with an entablature on the right. There are also two 12-pane sash windows on the first floor. All the windows have chamfered cases that are characteristic of the Vaynor Estate.
