Two-storey 3-window range of 12-pane hornless sash windows and central doorway, but ground floor right has square bay window with 12-pane sash to front. Four-panelled door with overlight with marginal glazing bars in plain stucco frame. Badly eroded wrought iron railings to front set into dwarf stuccoed wall with short square uprights set diamond-wise with scrolled and twisted finials; 2 small gates in centre have uprights and finials of similar pattern and arched top. Gate and railings are similar to those in front of No 41 High Street.
