Forms part a terrace of early C19th buildings located on the south western side of London Road/Erith Place. Erith Place is a quiet road which runs parallel and is raised from London Road on its south western side. The building is in an exposed brown brick with a rendered and painted basement level. The door is located on the north western side of the façade, immediately abutting the north western party wall; it is raised from the street level and accessed via a set of six steps. Possibly original iron railings are located on either side of the steps. The door is round headed and set within a slight recesses in the brickwork, both the arch above and brickwork surrounding the door are painted. There is a semi-circular window located above the transom over the door. A further door is located beneath the steps up to the ground floor level, providing separate access to the basement level. There is a single window on the ground and first floor levels, aligning across the floors and located almost centrally within the facade. There is also a single basement level window but this does not align with the windows on the upper floors. All have painted flat gauged brick arches above (though the render at the basement level obscures that over the basement window) and small protruding sills. A small dormer window is located at the roof level, aligning with the windows on the floors below. There is a parapet with a stone coping is located over the second floor in front of this dormer, the coping has been painted black, this paintwork has chipped/flaked away in several locations, and there is a small amount of vegetation attached to it. A modern plastic gutter down pipe runs through a gap in the brickwork at the parapet level, down the basement level over the south eastern party wall. A quantity of wiring is located at various locations across the façade, this is likely associated with an aerial attached to the north western stack and a light located next to the basement level door. A low painted (white) brick wall with modern metal railings above is located between the front garden area of this property and the street. There are tall brick gate piers with decorative tops on either side of a modern gate at the north western side of this wall. Overall the building appears to be structurally sound and is in a good condition.

The ground floor door, which is located on the north western side of the façade, is likely modern and in timber painted blue with six panels. It is round headed with a semi circular window located above the transom over the door; this window is likely later and consists of four fixed panes.

Overall the windows are in a good condition with all panes present and in tact.

There are brick stacks located over both party walls, the north western has a tall aerial. The roof structure appears to be in a good condition with no bowing or slipped slates. (1)
