Two-storey, three-window front, offset to left. Horned sashes with marginal glazing bars, the upper sashes under eaves and with floor-level painted stone sills. Ground floor centre 4-panel door and larger sash each side, all with tooled stone voussoirs and keystones. Painted stone sills. Added service wing to right with grouted slate roof, single-storey, with C20 door and matching sash, both with matching voussoirs and keystones.
