Within the pediment is a shield inscribed 'NJSB'. To top of the floor is a pulvinated stone frieze with dentilled cornice over, which steps forward over each pilaster.

Above there is a central canted bay window with mullion and transomed lights and to either side there is a central two-light recessed and chamfered mullion and transomed window flanked by single light transomed windows. Below is a moulded sill stringcourse and between the windows are full height pilasters similar to those below. Similar frieze and cornice above.
