The roof is made of slate and has a half hip facing Well Lane, with ashlar stacks that have capping. The front is constructed of rough ashlar. The building includes two-light casement windows with keystones, particularly in the right-hand bay, which also has a French casement window above and a small shop front below a low pentice that faces the lane leading to The Bartons. The wall curves at the northeast corner.
