The cottage is two storeys and has an attic. The front facade has three windows; the first floor windows are two-light casements with glazing bars, one featuring an oval panel displaying the date 1719. The ground floor windows are two- and three-light wood mullion/transom casements, and there is a fielded panel door within a moulded case. An attic window is located in the south gable end. Brick chimney stacks are present. A small, one-storey and attic plastered wing with a pantile roof extends from the rear.
