Description

The south and north sides have scattered fenestration, including some casements and sashes in recessed frames with glazing bars, along with 20th-century rooflights. The entrance doorway features a portico in antis with an architrave and a bracketed hood, leading to a 20th-century panelled door. There is an axial red brick stack with a moulded cap.
