The exterior has three storeys and a cellar, with a three-window range. It includes two-storey oriel windows in sham timber-framing, which are set under gabled roofs.

A tablet on the building indicates it is "The John Gwynne James Memorial Home for Nurses," and there is another tablet on the rear that reads "W.J.H. 1766 1883."
