Description
Two storey buildings, the eastern end having a pitched roof covered in corrugated metal whilst the western end has a flat roof. Metal framed windows and the flat-roof section has an art-deco appearance. Brick painted bright yellow as at 20o4 when the building is occupied by Hunts, manufacturers of office furniture.
