The structure stands three storeys tall and has three windows, with the central section projecting and the windows set in recesses, flanked by full-height paired plain brick pilasters. The windows are sash style with glazing bars. The central doorway is pilastered and includes an entablature, a rectangular fanlight, and a panelled design.
