Description

The building has two storeys and an attic, with a plinth and a sill band at the upper floor. There is a blocked central coach entrance with a segmental arch, and segmental-headed square windows on either side. The upper floor includes one similar window on the left and a modern sack-hoist door on the right. Small attic windows are present in the gable ends.
