Glazing at Victoria Road bays altered.
Most of 1st FLOOR windows retaining original plate glass sash and case glazing, 2nd FLOOR AND ATTIC regrettably with modern uPVC replacement glazing (see NOTES). Tall attic storey over full cornice with elaborate wallhead stacks and shaped gables over corner bays, central finialled gable with glazed and keystoned oculus, tall shaped gable-headed and finialled attic windows over subsidiary elevations, simple blocked balustered parapet linking dormer heads.
