It dates from the 17th century and is constructed of red brick with a plain old tile roof and a brick stack.

There is a lateral stack at the rear. The right return has a studded door, likely from the 17th century, with a wooden surround. Inside, there is 17th-century panelling in the ground and first floor rooms, adorned with painted arabesque friezes. The ground floor features a fireplace with a stone surround and a flattened arch, along with herring-bone tiles above.
