On either side of the center, there are two-light wood casements with segmental brick heads, and a blocked segmental-headed opening is located on the left. A stone panel at the eaves, left of center, bears the inscription: "The gift of Mr. James Bacon Decd. in memory of his son Middleton and his daughter Ann 1778, Mr. Bacon died in the year 1774." There are gabled dormers on both the left and right with two-light casements. The interior has not been inspected. To the left, there is a 19th-century single-storey brick addition.
