Small mid C19th (possibly earlier) domestic cottage style building in a rendered and painted (white) brick. Forms the south eastern end of a short terrace fronting immediately onto the street on the north eastern side of Queens Gardens (6-8) which was originally much longer but was demolished in the first half of the C20th to make way for the rear of the large theatre/cinema (now the bingo hall). The render is scored across the façade to create the illusion of a large block construction. There is a single window on each floor, aligning across the floors, each with a protruding stone sill. These windows are located on the south eastern half of the façade with a door on their north western side. The render protrudes slightly above the windows creating the illusion of a large lintel above them. There is a gutter at the eaves level and a gutter down pipe is located over the south eastern party wall. There is a very slight gap in the render between this façade and that of No 7 to the north, perhaps suggesting that they were constructed at different times. A date of A.D. 1840 has been painted to the façade above the door, though it is not known exactly how accurate this is. The building appears to be structurally sound and in a good condition.

There are two windows, one per floor and a single door, all of which appear to be modern though in-keeping replacements. The door is in a painted (black) timber and has four rectangular panels, two in its lower half and two in its upper as well as a small glazed semi-circular opening near its top. There is also a small semi-circular fanlight above the transom over the door, with stained glass detail. Both the ground and the first-floor windows are timber framed sashes (again painted white) with both the upper and lower parts divided into eight panes by timber glazing bars. All are in a good condition.

The roof is hipped and ceramic tiles, with large ceramic tiles over the ridges. There is some severe bowing to the roof structure, particularly on the north western side, indicating some possible problems with its structural integrity. Otherwise the roof is in a good condition with no obvious slipped tiles.

On a similar small scale as many of the buildings located on this narrow muse style street. The busy two way traffic detracts from the small and quiet feel of this side street.(1)
