House and attached industrial premises, now shops and offices. Mid-late C18 with early-mid C19 alterations and additions to rear, all altered C20. Red brick in Flemish bond to front, poorer quality brickwork to rest. Plain tile roofs. Three storeys, three bays with wing to rear left, the front section of three storeys, four bays (former industrial premises) with lower two-storey, two-bay section beyond.

Front: Two C20 shop fronts, not of special interest, and entrance to No 84A. Windows above have flat brick arches, sashes with glazing bars to first floor, four-pane sashes to second floor, all with projecting sills. Second-floor band. Coped parapet.

Left return (onto Moss Lane): two bay section on left has inserted C20 doorway (now blocked) and flanking windows with rubblestone below; two two-light windows to first floor and dentilled eaves. Former workshop range between this and front range has four original windows to each floor, segmental-arched to ground and first floors all with C20 glazing; first-floor right-hand window broken into by inserted window; late C20 door inserted on ground floor between left-hand windows; dentilled eaves. Gable of main range has a similar window to each floor on left, and an inserted window to ground and first floors.

Rear: the wing has two projecting hipped-roofed loading bays, the former doorways now with windows; infill block between. The industrial range was probably built to house knitting frames, this section of the textile industry being important in Godalming in the later C18 and C19.
