It has a three-cell lobby-entrance plan and stands one and a half storeys high, with attics. The structure is timber-framed and rendered, featuring large panels with some herringbone pargetting. The roof is thatched and includes an axial chimney made of red brick, along with eyebrow casement dormers. There are 20th-century casements and a panelled entrance door, as well as an open 20th-century porch with plain tiles.
