The building is timber framed and plastered, topped with handmade red clay tiles. It has two bays facing southwest, featuring an internal stack at the rear of the right bay and an external stack at the left end. There is a flat-roofed single-storey extension added in 1978.

A glazed door is located at the front of a 20th-century hipped porch. Inside, the right bay has a chamfered axial beam without stops, while the left bay contains longitudinal joists of square section.
