There is a lean-to extension on the right, which is weatherboarded and has double doors. The building stands two storeys high and has a two-window range, consisting of 19th-century, three-light small-paned casements. Additionally, there are five circular iron tie plates and a red brick chimney stack located on the right side of the cottage.
