The centre bay contains a 16-pane sash window also under an ogee gauged brick arch. On the first floor, there is a 16-pane sash window flanked by sashes with intersecting glazing bars, all situated under ogee gauged brick arches. The cottage is topped with a crenellated parapet and has rear wall stacks.
