The structure features walls made of a combination of stone, brick, and plaster, topped with slate roofs and brick stacks, some of which are plastered.

On the ground floor, there are three double-hung sash windows with glazing bars, while the first floor has four similar windows. The rear wing, which faces Dorchester Road, has a blocked door and two double-hung sash windows with glazing bars on the first floor. There is a boundary wall along the road made of stone, flint, and brick, capped with half-round tiles.
