Four Gothic pointed windows with stone voussoirs and slate sills. Later C19 simple Y tracery , presumably replacing small-paned glazing.

One door on rear E wall with filled-in pointed window above, wall-face chimney and smaller Gothic pointed window . S end wall is rendered with brick lean-to. Lean-to has similar pointed W window.
