The building is one-and-a-half storeys high and has three windows, each with two lights and wooden frames containing glazing bars. Wooden sills are present. The windows are 20th century replacements. A 20th-century plank front door is located to the left of centre, sheltered by a thatched porch canopy supported on wooden struts.
