It is a six-storied building. The ground floor is of newly-cleaned white stone and the floors above are of newly-cleaned and repointed red brick.
The doorway is central. Two pillars either side of it support a stone archway broken by a scrolled plaque with the number 32 carved upon it. The two doors are of heavy brown wood, each with a round dull metal doorknob fitted centrally. The letterbox and the bell are on the left-hand door. The doorway is approached up one short dark grey step from the pavement. On either side of the doorway a wooden plaque is fitted to the wall. The left-hand plaque is a darker brown than the one on the right. Above the doors is a sheet of frosted glass through which a light from inside the building can be dimly seen. In the centre of this sheet of glass is embossed the number 32 which is encircled by an embossed circle. On either side of this circle are four evenly-spaced embossed semicircles.
There are six windows on the ground floor. They are sah-cord windows and each contains fifteen panes of glass. The window frames are painted white and behind each window are white net curtains. Above each window is an imitation keystone. Above the second window from the left a downward-pointing spotlight is fixed onto the wall and juts out on a stem. On the far left corner of the building is affixed another lamp. But this one has no stem and is fixed flat to the wall.
On the first floor there are net curtains in the first, second, fifth, sixth and seventh windows (reading from the left) and no curtains in the third and fourth. The central window on the first floor - positioned above the door - is built differently to all other windows on the facade. Above it is a pointed, jutting arch and above that a white wooden flagpole. The flagpole is secured to the wall by two black iron rods which lead from an iron band around the pole around to the wall either side of the window. A single rope hangs down from the top of the pole. A wire trails from the third window from the left on the first floor down to the second window from the left on the ground floor. Some of the white stones on the wall beneath the ground floor window on the left are discoloured and thus make geometric patterns. From the...
