A slender projecting stack is located at the left end, and a multiple corbelled brick ridge stack is situated to the right of the centre. A hipped dormer is also present. The windows are irregularly placed and consist of four two-light leaded casements. A ribbed door is situated under the stack. The interior has not been inspected.
