On the south front, there are two pointed arched windows adorned with wooden intersecting tracery. The west gable has a plain beaded boarded door, which is topped by a brick segmental arch. Above this door, in the gable, is another pointed arched window with wooden intersecting tracery. To the north, there is a lean-to extension, and the east gable has a single small casement window positioned at a high level.

Inside, the chapel has a segmental plaster ceiling.
