Currently the offices of Nicholson Portnell, Solicitors. According to the Hexham Local History Society leaflet "Victorian & Edwardian Hexham" Pevsner thought that the building had 'the architecturally most ambitious facade of 18th century Hexham'. The building contained the offices of the Local Board of Health/Urban District Council from 1889-1930 (there was a spacious rear yard for the council's equipment).
