A door and two further two-light windows are located below. Two dormers are present. The west-end attic window is a two-light design with a hoodmould. The north side has all windows blocked and incorporates a central door within a 19th-century timber gabled porch. Inside, a large east-end fireplace is notable for its chamfered stone sides and a chamfered timber lintel. The first-floor east-end fireplace is bolection-moulded stone.
