This tenement, which contains three storeys and an attic, is of late 17th century date. The ground floor is occupied by shops. The upper floors are entered from a staircase set in the centre of the front. The masonry is rubble with back-set dressings at the voids. The roof is pantiled and the gables were originally crow-stepped.
