Details House, still in use, built in the mid-18th century fronting a parallel earlier range. The front block is dated 1759. The street frontage (west) is two-storey and attic and three-bay, and is harled with painted ashlar margins. The centre entrance has flanking windows with 12-pane glazing. The first floor has regular first floor fenestration with 12-pane lying-pane glazing, and late 19th century canted wallhead dormers in the outer bays with plate glass and four-pane glazing. All the windows are timber sash and case. The slate roof has flat skews with moulded run-off skewputts and moulded copes to end stacks. The rear block is a much altered early 18th century single-storey over raised basement dwelling, linked to the later front block. It is constructed from harled rubble with some painted ashlar margins. The north gable has a basement doorway and a first floor gable window. The east frontage is masked by substantial modern bay windows with piended roofs. There are mullioned and transomed lights, four-light to the right (north-east), and three-light over a single basement window at the left (south-east). The north gable has a single early 18th century apex chimney stack to the slate roof. The rear garden is enclosed with rubble walls.
