Tiled mansard roofs (No 50 with one square dormer) Multicoloured stock brick, with gauged red brick window arches, the brickwork painted to No 52. Both houses have parapets. No 50 has cornice band and first floor band. No 52 has brick moulded and dentilled cornice. Renewed sash windows, those of No 50 with glazing bars, in old box frames. Doorway to No 50 under cornice hood and blocked fanlight of interlacing pointed arches. Narrow, moulded architrave, pulvinated frieze and dentilled cornice hood on brackets.
