There are two flat-roofed dormers. On the first floor, there are two mullioned and transomed windows along with a central glazing bar sash. The ground floor has two segmentally headed plate glass windows and a central half-glazed door topped with a raking hood. To the right, there is a half-hipped wing that is one storey and attic high, set on a rendered plinth with a stack at the end right and a flat-roofed dormer. A boarded door and a glazing bar sash are located to the right.
