The building is timber-framed and plastered, with a concrete pantiled roof. There are two external end chimneys made of 19th century gault brick. The windows are 19th and 20th century casements, and the entrance door is a four-panelled design from the 19th century, with the upper panels being glazed. The interior has not been examined.
