Twelve-pane horned sashes and off-centre board door, set closer to right window. Cemented sills. Left end is rendered with attached low outbuilding. E end is rendered with one first floor 9-pane window, rear lean-to with two new windows facing N, small 9-pane window in E end.
Outbuilding attached to the house on the W is a long stone outbuilding set lower than house. From right: an eaves-breaking 9-pane dormer with catslide roof; and door with brick head between two small windows with stone voussoirs.
Below this outbuilding is a very small stone building at a lower level again, with brick chimney and new 9-pane window, then, at a lower level again, a pig sty, with two entries and two walled enclosures. Rear walls have been rendered of roughcast.
