Cruciform in plan with gabled ends to each wing. Two storeys and attics, each wing of l-bay width. South elevation has blocked windows to upper floors and C19 casements to ground floor, but east and north facades have chamfered oak cross-mullions, that to ground floor on east front of 8 lights. Doorway in angle on south front with panelled C19 door, rectangular fanlight and lean-to porch with latticework posts. Moulded plinth, stepped copings to gables with crocketed pinnacles at apexes.

The house, both interior and exterior, was in a very poor state of repair at the time of resurvey (July 1986).
