A pair of small robustly detailed timber-framed lock-ups with gabled corrugated iron roofs. The walls have chamfer-stop timber posts with weatherboard infill. The heavy V-jointed doors have thick iron hinges and lock. The gable ends are fitted with louvred vents and small window openings with iron bars and steel mesh.
