The front elevation has an 8-window front, with Nos 19 and 20 rendered and Nos 20-22 roughcast. The roof is slate, with a slightly undulating ridge and exposed eaves. A tall brick stack rises from the front pitch, along with two end stacks. Modern two-storey attics with flat-roofed dormers have been added to Nos 19 and 21. There are two-storey street-facing extensions to Nos 19 and 22, and single-storey extensions to Nos 20 and 21.

No. 21 boasts an 18th/early 19th century shop front under a lean-to roof, including a ten-pane window and a recessed panelled and glazed door with a fanlight. A deep porch, serving Nos. 21 and 22 and elevated above the street by seven steps with timber handrails, is located to the left.
