MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, painted to No.2, double Roman tile roofs. EXTERIOR: Three storeys, each three windows, all sashes. No.2 has two four-pane above three plain, with full width pilaster shopfront of 1902, with door and transom light, left. No.3 has early twelve-pane to attic, and plain sash below, ground floor has early C19 shopfront, altered in late C19, with oriel display window and door to left, with house door to right. Deep platband has mainly been cut away to ground floor, slight break back from Nos 2 to 3, including full entablature above first floor, but plain straight eaves. Large central stack.
