The first floor has a two-window range of four-panel sliding sash windows. The ground floor features an early 19th-century bay shop window with a moulded fascia board over to the left, a glazed door, and a window to the right. There is a part-glazed door to the right, with a flat canopy supported by brackets with a moulded frieze. A red brick chimney stack is located at the rear.
