Description

It is constructed of rubble, with some parts rendered, and features a pantiled roof with coped raised verges and brick and rendered stacks.

It includes four cross windows with two and three lights, which have square leaded lights, ovolo moulded mullions, and surrounding dripmoulds. Additionally, there are two-light casement windows in the gables. To the right, there is a panelled and studded door set in an ogee moulded surround.
