The roof is slate, and there are rubble and cement render chimney stacks. The outer first and second floor windows have lugged architraves, while the central windows are blocked, except for the second floor window on the right. The left side has modern cross frame windows, and the right side features small pane sashes and a tripartite window on the first floor right. The shop windows for Nos 14 and 18 are modern, with a Victorian surround on the former. In the center, there is a paired Doric doorcase with panelled reveals and modern panelled doors.
The right side of the building has broadly spaced scribed painted render with one window on the first floor and two on the second, including a cross range and a plinth. The second floor has a horned sash window on the left with a bracket cill, while the right side has lugged architraves on the small pane sash windows and a blocked half-glazed door.
