The buildings are constructed of painted brick with a plain tile roof and feature four gabled dormers. The front has two storeys and four windows, with wooden casements set within openings with a cambered head. A large brick stack is centrally positioned. A two-story painted brick extension is located to the right, featuring a single sash window on each floor; the ground floor window has a keyed head.
