The windows consist of two lights with square mullions and plain stone surrounds. The right-hand lights are sashed with glazing bars, while the left-hand lights are fixed with glazing bars. The door, located between the bays, has a plain stone surround and is topped with a hood made of two pitched stone slates supported by square brackets. A chimney is positioned between the bays.
