No 22 has a replacement panelled door to the house, and replacement half-glazed shop door, under replacement overlights.
In the middle storey are moulded architraves to 12-pane horned sashes (hornless to No 20). The upper storey has smooth-rendered eared architraves, of which No 20 retains 9-pane horned sashes and Nos 18 and 22 have replacement small-pane top-hung casements.
