The entrance on the right has a four-centred arched head with a hood mould and label stop, leading to a 20th-century door. To the left, there are two sash windows with 16 panes and stone flat arches, with two similar windows on the first floor.
The right part of the farmhouse is also made of squared coursed ironstone and has a steeply pitched 20th-century tile roof with a brick ridge stack.
