It was built around 1825 and features a rendered exterior with ashlar detailing and a concealed lead roof. The building is circular in shape and has crenellations, with one crenellation continuing as a chimney stack. At the rear, there is a new single-storey wing. The structure has two storeys and is designed with six windows, each consisting of two-light timber frames with leading in pointed arches and Y-tracery. The entrance door is set in a similar pointed arch opening.
