Forms part of a terrace of 9, mid C19th houses of a double depth plan, located on the northern side of Norman Street. The whole build projects forward from, and is at a slightly higher level than No. 16 on its eastern side, though is level with its western neighbour (No. 14). It is in a stock brick which is rendered across all floors, this render is painted cream while the plasterwork detailing is painted white. The render at the basement level is slightly advanced from that of the main façade. The door is located on the western side of the façade, close to the western party wall and next to the front door of No. 14, with a single window at the ground floor level on its eastern side. The ground floor is raised from the street level and the front door is accessed via a set of six paved steps. There is a door beneath these steps which provides separate access to the basement level. There are five pilasters at the ground floor level, one on either side of both the window and the door, with a further over the eastern party wall, supporting an entablature with triglyphs and first floor level. There are two windows at the first floor level, these do not align with those on the ground floor. Both have moulded plasterwork surrounds and triangular pediments on console brackets located above. Some of this plasterwork detailing surrounding the first floor windows at the top of the ground floor is weathered and stained. The second floor windows align with the first floor windows, these have protruding sills but lack the detailing apparent on the first floor windows over and on their surrounds. There is a projecting moulded cornice below a low parapet over the second floor, this cornice does not stretch across the whole of the façade but stops at a point level with the eastern side of the eastern second floor window. The plaster and paintwork on this cornice and parapet is chipped and cracked as there is a small amount of vegetation growth. An amount of untidy wiring is attached to the façade at several locations and there are a number of modern features, including a light at the basement level. In the front of the house there is a low stuccoed brick wall with iron railing above and stuccoed gate piers separating a small paved garden area from the street. Two further low walls with stuccoed gate piers with moulded caps are located on either side of the steps up to the doorway. These are all painted cream with white on the detailing to match the façade of the house. The rear elevation is in flint with stone dressings which are painted. A number of modern gutter and waste water down pipes cross the rear elevation. Despite some cracks in the render and a small quantity of vegetation growth the building appears to be in a good condition with a number of surviving original features.

There are six windows located across the façade, all are all original 12-pane sashes divided by timber glazing bars. The first and second floor windows align across the floors, while the single ground floor and basement windows are located slightly off centre, on the western side of the door. There is a further flat roofed dormer at the roof level with a possibly original 6 pane sash. This dormer is in a poor condition, the frame appears to be rotting. All of the windows are four panes high by three wide apart from the basement window which is four wide by three high and the dormer which is three wide by two high. The door is located on the western side of the façade, abutting the western party wall. It is a C19 panelled door in timber painted black. The upper two panels are glazed in an opaque glass. There is a rectangular overlight located above the transom over the door, also with opaque glass. The window and door frames are in timber painted white. The windows on the rear elevation were not clearly seen but appear to be in a fairly good condition though some chipped paintwork is visible. All of the windows are in a good condition, aside from the dormer at the roof level which is in a poor condition.

The roof is gabled with the gable ends over both party walls. It is in a Welsh slate. There are rendered stacks over party walls, some of the render on this stack is chipped and flaking away. There is a large modern aerial located just behind the parapet at the roof level. Both the stack and the roof are in a good condition. (1)
