The structure is made of coursed and squared ironstone with ashlar dressings and wood, featuring a patterned plain tile roof topped with an iron cross finial. The lychgate has stone bases with chamfered plinths and copings, a pair of wooden gates with pierced quatrefoil panels, and a pair of posts with shaped curved brackets. It has a kingpost roof. To the east, there is a paling side gate, and on each side, there are short coped flanking walls, measuring 3 meters long on the left and 7 meters long on the right.
