The front facade features three sash windows on each upper floor, set within plain surrounds. The ground floor incorporates two Venetian windows, also with plain surrounds. A doorway, similarly framed with a plain surround and arched head, is distinguished by quoins at the sides, a semi-circular fanlight with Gothic tracery, and an attractive porch constructed of decorative wrought iron with a pentice roof. The building is capped by a hipped slate roof. It serves as a prominent landmark within the area.
