A Quaker meeting house and adjoining house, dating to the late 18th century. The building is constructed of squared watershot limestone with sandstone dressings and a stone slate roof. The meeting house, situated to the right, is a single-story structure with a gallery. The adjoining house is of two stories.
The meeting house features a tripartite sash window with glazing bars, a plain stone surround, and square mullions on each side of the entrance door. The double doors have raised and fielded panels, a plain stone surround with a semi-circular head and keystone above a lintel, and a fanlight with radiating glazing bars.
The house has a projecting bay to the left of its doorway, featuring sash windows with glazing bars and plain stone surrounds. Projecting quoins match those on the right side of the meeting house. A 19th-century extension is located to the left, incorporating quoins of imitation stone. A two-light window with a plain stone surround and square mullions is on the first floor of the house, while a French window with a plain stone surround is on the ground floor. A brick chimney cap is visible on the left-hand gable. The right-hand gable wall of the meeting house has two two-light windows on the first floor, each with a plain stone surround and square mullions. A door with a plain stone surround is positioned below.
The interior of the meeting room contains fixed pine benches of raised and fielded panels on the left-hand side. A wide gallery, originally used by women and children, is located on the right. It has a front of raised and fielded panels, some of which function as shutters.
