The stairs are C20 and positioned to rear of the right room. 2 storeys with secondary lean-to outshots to rear and on the right end. Exterior: not quite symmetrical 2-window front. The ground floor windows are UPVC casements with glazing bars dating from circa 1986. The first floor windows are C19 casements with glazing bars, the left one with unusually small rectangular panes. The roof is tall and steeply pitched and hipped each end. Interior: no carpentry detail is exposed and the fireplaces are blocked by C20 grates.
