The building is two storeys high and features five bays, with the central three bays slightly projecting under a low pediment. The entrance consists of a central double-leaf glazed door topped by a fanlight with radial glazing, set within a round-headed architrave. A Doric porch frames the entrance. On either side of the door, there are round-headed sash windows with a sill band, glazing bars, and radial glazing, all set in fluted architraves with an impost band. The building has a first-floor band and a first-floor sill band, with five sash windows featuring glazing bars in architraves with segmental heads. The eaves are dentilled, and there are raked cornices, a hipped roof, and axial stacks.
