House, divided into flats. Circa early C19. Whitewashed and stuccoed ; hipped slate roof with deep eaves ; end stacks with brick shafts. Plan: The main block rectangular on plan containing the principal rooms with a small gabled entrance block set back at the left end with the stair to the rear of the entrance. Rear not inspected but large-scale maps show an additional block adjoining at the rear left corner, adjoining Causeway Cottage (No 24). Exterior: 3 storeys. Asymmetrical 3-bay front with a platband and 1-bay block set back at the left end. The main block has a shallow first floor 3-light bow window to the right with 3 12-pane timber sash windows, 12-pane sashes to ground and first floor left; tripartite sash, probably a late C19 or early C20 replacement, to ground floor right with glazing bars ; 3 second floor 8-pane sashes. The entrance block retains a C19 half-glazed front door with margin panes, 12-pane first floor sash above, 2 pane sash to second storey. Interior: Not inspected but the C19 stair, to the rear of the entrance, survives, and other interior features of the early C19 may exist. A good frontage and very prominent in Fore Street because of its height. An undated photograph in the Bishopsteignton Museum shows a long glazed porch to the entrance block.
