The left bay includes panelled double doors with a traceried fanlight, while the right bay has a window. Above the ground floor, the side bays contain single windows with raised surrounds and elongated keystones. The central bay features a window flanked by rusticated pilasters, with an eared surround and scroll keystone beneath a segmental pediment. On either side of this central window are additional windows with similar surrounds and elongated keystones. All windows are 8/12 glazing bar sashes.

On the upper floor, there are three windows with bracketed sills, flanked by single windows that have rusticated surrounds and triple keystones beneath enriched panels with blank cartouches.
