The cottage has two storeys and a three-window front. It features 19th-century two- and three-light casement windows with glazing bars. A plank door is positioned to the right of a buttress, which may be the remains of a stack. A 20th-century glazed door is located to the left of the buttress. A stack is present on the rear wall.
