The cottage has a thatched roof with two eyebrow dormers and is a single storey building. There is a red plain tiled extension that is hipped to the left and a lean-to red pantile extension to the right. The cottage has central and left red brick chimney stacks. The main range is one storey with attics and has a window arrangement of one central and three side windows, all square leaded casements with segmental arches.
