Overall condition is very poor.

• Chimneys – Rendered chimney stacks to ridge stump remains only. That to gable at right lost due to partial collapse of gable wall. Chimney stump only remains to left gable and separating wall at carriage-arch. Chimney stumps appear to have been recently re-rendered.
• Roof – Movement evident to roofslopes suggests timber structure in poor condition. Extensive slippage and breakage of slates, some replacement slates to rear roofslope. Rooflight in rear slope appears extensively corroded. Roof to rear return not accessible, however extensive vegetation growth and loss of pots to chimney indicate also in poor condition.
• Dormers – Timber dormers to front roofslope appear in poor condition. Evidence of damp causing distortion of timber cheeks. Poor decorative order. Extensive paint peeling.
• Rainwater Goods – Extensive vegetation growth to moulded cast-iron gutters, heavily corroded. Evidence of failure. Gutters feed into round downpipe between 49 and 51 William Street.
• External Walls – Extensive cracking and patch repairs in cement mortar to original block marked lime rendered walling. Extensive paint peeling and damage to plasterwork at leading edges of openings.
• Dressings – Extensive cracking to window dressings. Damage to ground floor reveals and architraves where metal guarding removed. Structural movement caused displacement of first floor sill course.
• Entrance – Painted moulded surround to entrance door. Door boarded up. Partial loss of flat pediment to over entrance
• Windows – One-over-one timber sliding sashes remain at ground and first floor with single timber casement window over carriage-arch. Openings largely boarded up.

• Miscellaneous – Grilles to ventilate under timber floor remain visible on street however heavily corroded and partially damaged. In poor condition. Extensive surface-fixed cabling to first floor sill course. Vegetation growth to first floor window openings. Replacement metal gate to carriage-arch.
• Structure – Significant structural crack to head of carriage-arch running through first floor sill course and to eaves through first floor window. Displacement of window above carriage-arch.

• Structural – Grub-up existing floor structure and install new insulated concrete ground floor. Install new timber first floor structure. Front wall requires stabilisation works. Allow for underpinning of existing foundations.
