The first floor has two central two-light casements and two end three-light casements. An off-centre six-panel door is situated under an open pediment canopy. There is a late 19th-century dormer with a plate-glass sash and two end stacks, along with one off-centre stack. The south gable is made of brick. To the north, there is a mid-18th-century two-bay, two-story brick extension featuring two ground-floor sashes with glazing bars and two first-floor sashes, which are part plate-glass and part with glazing bars, along with an end stack.
