The cottage features a double pitched roof, which may have been slated at a later date, supported by brick corbel table eaves. There is a doorway with a simple bracketed hood, and the windows are segmental-arched with flush frames. The sash windows include glazing bars. Additionally, there are 18th century brown brick front garden walls on either side of the cottage.
