Description

15 The Watton is part of a row of seven buildings, which includes six houses and a public house to the left. The buildings are two storeys high with rendered fronts and a plinth, topped by a hipped slate roof at the left end. Each building features two window fronts with sash glazing, and doorcases that include architraves, friezes, and cornices.

Specifically, No. 15 has 12-pane sashes on the first floor. On the ground floor, there is a doorway to the right with an overlight, and to the left, a late 19th-century shop window consisting of three lights, flanked by end pilasters, with a fascia and cornice above. Additionally, there is an attic window on the right return and a lean-to structure.
