PLAN: Built end onto the street, 2 rooms deep with side passage along right party wall. EXTERIOR: 3 storeys and attic; one-window range to narrow frontage. Recessed shop front and doorway to side passage at right end, but each end there are fluted posts from late C19 shop front and contemporary fascia above.

Each floor contains central 16-pane sash window. Timber modillion eaves cornice. Hipped roof containing late C19 gabled dormer. INTERIOR: not inspected but likely to be of interest. HISTORY: This side of Fairfax Place was built up after the 1580s on land reclaimed from the estuary and thereafter Fairfax Place/Lower Street was one of the main trading streets of Dartmouth connecting the old quay at Bayards Cove with the New Quay around the present Boat Float.
