Late C19 horned sashes, 1st and 2nd floors with 6-pane sashes, the sashes to left and right with segmental heads; ground floor with central doorway (approached by straight flight of granite steps) with overlight and pair of panelled doors and flanking pilastered canted bay windows with moulded cornices and hipped slate roofs.
