The building is two storeys high and consists of four bays. The windows are 19th and 20th-century casements, with the ground floor windows having segmental heads. The south front has an off-centre 20th-century glazed door, which is flanked on the left by one casement and on the right by two casements. Above, there are four casements of varying sizes. The north side displays irregular window placement. There is an adjoining single-storey outbuilding to the west, which has two bays, a pantile roof, and a single coped gable with kneelers. The south side of this outbuilding also features an off-centre glazed door flanked by single casements.
