Above is plate-glass cambered-headed sash in Bath stone flush surround with cambered dripmould and carved keystone. To right is big 2-storey painted timber canted bay with slightly cambered heads to large plate glass sashes, matching Doric friezes each floor and slim column angle shafts. Low pitched leaded roof to upper window and similar leaded skirt between lower cornice and upper sill. Above bay is eaves-breaking stone gable with fretted bargeboards, ashlar quoins and smaller cambered headed sash in ashlar surround with dripmould and keystone.
