The facade features three plain sash windows, each with flat brick arches above them. The central doorway is adorned with Roman Doric columns and has a flat-roofed porch that includes glazed doors without glazing bars. The original hipped slate roof has been replaced by a modern flat roof, which is topped with a raised brick parapet that has stone coping.
