The north elevation has 2 storeys, 2.1.4 windows. Slate roof, wooden moulded cornice with coupled brackets, breaking over the projected entrance as a pediment. Stucco walling, first-floor band (discontinued above the entrance), the cills, plinth. Sashes in reveals, but with outer wooden architraves. The wide doorcase has delicate mouldings, a thin cornice on 2 console brackets, panels above narrow side windows and door,panels beneath the side windows, and stepped plinth, the doorway being arched and enclosing a 6-panelled door. The other elevations are of the later periods, giving a patchwork of several attached units, in vernacular style.
