It has two storeys and consists of one bay. There is a boarded door leading to the pigsty, set within an alternating-block surround.

To the right, there are two additional pigsties that are lower in height and have exercise yards in front. The walls of these pigsties are designed with sloping chutes leading to round, stone feeding troughs.
