The 3 first-floor windows to right were similar, the central one is bricked up with a small C20 window inserted; the cill of the window to right has been lowered and forms a tall 9/9-pane sash stair window to No.47; the window to far right is a horned 6/6-pane sash with a blind window below. A plate-glass shop window to centre of the ground floor has 2 square panes at the base and 2 horizontal ones to the top below painted-over full-width overlight with glazing bar that reflects those above door; a simple fascia with a moulded cornice spans the top.
