There is an inserted doorway on the far right that includes a cornice and a hood supported by console brackets, with glazed doors. A brick chimney stack is located between the second and third bays. The right-hand gable has a square attic window, while the left gable features two small round-headed windows, one of which is blocked. The interior has not been inspected.
