The end two bays are canted on the first and ground floors, with oculi above. The central three bays project and are topped with a pediment, which has an oculus in the tympanum. The doorway is made of stucco and features a pulvinated frieze, a dentilled pediment, and Tuscan pilasters; it has been moved from the centre to the left. The central ground floor windows are round-arched.
