Description

The central section projects forward, featuring a pinnacled gable and a splayed ground floor bay with a pointed arch doorway on either side. Flanking these are gabled wings. A set-back section and a rectangular bay window on the far left are also present. The windows are Gothic, with some featuring diamond panes. The roof is covered with machine tiles and has coped gables.
