Similar windows to ground floor, at present partly boarded. Central double loading doors on both floors. Further single door to centre right. Small windows and door on left end. Right end an rear blank. Interior reported as retaining original stairs.
This framework knitters workshop is a little-altered and unusual survival of the intermediate stage in the hosiery industry between home working and the complete factory. A number of knitters would work here for the workshop owner, some heating being provided by the end fireplaces.
