This is a small, early 19th-century, two-story thatched cottage with a gable end facing the road. It is constructed from painted rubble, with the front rendered. The cottage has two ranges of two-light casement windows. The thatch is slightly cut away above the first-floor windows. A modern lean-to porch has been added. A brick chimney is located on the right side, and the roof has a half-hip design on the left.
