Building sits beneath steeply pitched gabled roof, laid in modern tiles, the ridgeline of which runs parallel with the carriageway. Brick end stacks. Symmetrical principal elevation with two centrally positioned doors flanked to either side by canted ground floor bays beneath tiled roof that stretched across whole of ground floor. Four regularly positioned timber sash windows to first floor. Rothschild plaque centrally positioned at first floor level. Building is significant because it forms part of a group of Rothschild cottages that share similar form, massing, materials and details. It is prominently positioned within the street scene and retains a significant proportion of its original external features. A Local Building of Note within the Conservation Area (B1).
