House divided into flats. Late 18th century. Front wall Flemish bond brick with some paired headers and some paired stretchers; side walls local stone rubble, rear wall not seen on survey. Roof concealed behind new or rebuilt brick parapet; end stacks with brick shafts with platbands and yellow crested pots.
Plan: double-depth plan, two rooms wide with a central entrance and axial top-lit stair off the central passage to the right. Although the stair is renewed, the plan is probably original.
Exterior: prominently-sited on an elevated section of pavement on Angel Hill. Three storeys and basement. Symmetrical three-bay front. Platband at first-floor level. Tie rods at second-floor level. Round-headed doorcase with cornice and pilasters with sunk panels and fielded panelled reveals. Small-pane 20th century door below probably original fanlight with spoke glazing bars. Sixteen-pane sash windows to the ground floor, the left-hand window horned and probably a replacement. Segmental-headed windows to the half basement, the left-hand window barred. Three first floor round-headed windows, the left one horned and probably a replacement. Windows glazed with small-pane sashes the upper central pane round-headed, with wide margin glazing. Three similar but smaller second-floor sash windows, the right-hand window altered with the lower light bottom-hung.
Interior: partly inspected. Stair is a replacement but retains an archway with a segmental-headed timber tympanum. Most of the joinery appears to have been renewed.
