Shops and flats, still in use as such, built in the mid 19th century. It is a two-storey and attic, three-bay stugged ashlar building with finely droved margins, a first floor cill course and an eaves course. There are cavetto corniced stacks with polygonal cans and ashlar-coped skews with flat skewputts to the roof, and cast-iron downpipes, part square-section, to the centre and north, recessed into the stonework. The principal north elevation is symmetrical, with a central timber door with a deep plate glass fanlight and shops in the flanking bays, each with an in-canted part-glazed door (that to Number 1 with an encaustic-tiled doorstep), plate glass fanlight and outer fixed display windows under a fascia with a dentilled cornice and carved console brackets. There are three regularly disposed windows to the first floor, and canted polygonal-roofed dormers over the outer bays flanking two small rooflights. The east gabled elevation has two fixed display windows at the ground under a plain fascia, an enlarged first floor window to the south and a small projecting rectangular stone in the gablehead.
