Situated in terraced row set back from the street line between Nos 59 and 63.
History
Earlier C19 house, possibly the service wing to the larger No 59 adjoining, the large ground floor window suggesting a later C19 use as shop.

Two-storey 2-window front, with 2 small 12-pane sash windows, offset to left, above ground floor single, large C19 shop window right of centre and C20 door to extreme left. Shopwindow of 6 large panes with surround of pilasters and cornice on console brackets.
Forecourt fronted by dwarf wall with low later C19 or early C20 iron railings with fleur-de-lys finials. Small matching gate at left with dogbars. Rendered return walls.
Reason for designation
