The ground floor has a early C20 shop front which projects to the building line of the front and left return with plate-glass windows with leaded overlights and moulded sills and a C20 door to the upper floor to the rear of the right return. No.2 to the centre, has a recessed 4-light window to the ground floor similar to the oriel above with a C17 painted door to the right with fleur-de-lys tips to C17 wrought-iron stap hinges incorporated between the studded panelling on the front and the planked rear. No.3 to the right has some hanging tiles to the apex of the gable, now heavily painted over, an oriel to the first floor and a late C19 shop front with pilasters, moulded fascia and decorative wooden upper corners to plate-glass windows, one to the left and two to the right.
