There are stepped stone stacks at both ends of the house. The right rear wing also has 12-pane sashes in moulded boxes and a stepped stone stack on the back gable. The rear elevation includes a one-and-a-half storey outshut with a boarded door and two small windows to the right, along with a 12-pane sliding sash window on the first floor.
