The windows are generally double-hung sashes with glazing bars, set in plain reveals. The roof is tiled, with a hipped form on the main block. A two-storey and attic addition is present on the west end, featuring a stopped gable.
The interior includes an 18th-century panelled room, good doorways, and a staircase with turned and twisted balusters.
