It features an old clay tiled roof with a valley gutter running parallel to both roof slopes and the gable ends facing Forge Lane. The building has one original cast iron window in a small square, along with two bay windows that have tiled roofs, all with lead lights. There is also a blind bulls-eye window in one of the gable ends.
