The buildings form an 'L' shape, with the main arm set at a right angle to School Lane. They are two storeys high, or single-storey with an attic. The windows are varied, mostly 2-light casements with timber lintels or straight stone voussoirs, and there are five gabled dormers on the east side. The doors are made of plank.
