The structure is almost square in shape and features a high base, heavy quoins, and a prominent cornice supported by modillions, topped with a balustraded parapet. There are three round-arched windows facing Darwen Street and two on Church Street, all of which are linked and adorned with Composite columns and intricate ornamentation. The corner of the building is cut out to create a square entrance, which is framed by iron gates set within a round arch.
