Three storeys faced with flints. Tiled roof. Nos 41-43 have five windows in red brick surrounds with brick mullions. In the centre of the ground floor is a painted stone archway. No 44 is of two storeys and has three mullioned windows in brick surrounds. No 45 is now plastered. Two storeys, altered in C18. One sash. Early C19 shopfront with pilasters.
