Timber framed and part exposed with plaster infill, otherwise tile hung, part painted, on red brick ground floor. Plain tiled roof. Two storeys and attic with half-hipped roof at right stacks to rear centre right and clustered to centre left, with three hipped dormers.
The former Lloyds Bank to end left with four-and three-light leaded casements on first floor, and boarded door and 80 paned window to ground floor extension, with open passageway to right (with cusped woodwork). Former Eight Bells to centre, with four-lights mullioned and three-light mullioned and transomed windows on first floor, four-light casement and paired glazing bar sashes to right on ground floor, with half-glazed doors to left with flight of steps, and to centre right. Shuttered basement Spyways with paired sashes and three-light casement on first floor and tripartite sash on ground floor, with projecting bay to right, the upper section glazed and bracketed out, with half-glazed door in left side. The basement with boarded door with grille, louvred side opening, and water tank with spout set flush with wall, said to have been a lock-up at some stage. Projecting hipped framed rear wings to whole range. Although of more than one build, the interlacing tenures give the range same unity. Heavily framed interims and inglenooks reported, the framing reportedly early in character.
