The district encompasses 41 contributing buildings in the central business district of Gaffney. Most of the buildings were constructed between 1900 and 1930 and are primarily commercial buildings in vernacular interpretations of the Italianate, Romanesque Revival, Renaissance Revival, Art Deco, and Neoclassical styles. All the buildings are constructed of brick and vary in height from one to four stories. The downtown area, which remains a center of Gaffney commerce, retains much of its early 20th-century character.
