It has one and a half storeys and includes three windows, which are three-light metal casements with horizontal glazing bars, also from the 20th century. The wooden cills and segmental stone window heads add to its character. The front door, positioned to the left of centre, is made of wood and has six glass roundels, dating from the 20th century.
