The gatehouse features a coursed stone rubble plinth and is constructed from coursed stone rubble with brick dressings and brick panels arranged in a regular pattern. It has an old plain-tile roof and is a single storey with an attic, comprising a 2-bay range. To the left is a gateway with 12-panel double-leaf gates, and to the right is a 2-light stone mullion window with a hood-mould. The interior has not been inspected.
