It is three stories high and has one window, which contains sashes with original glazing bars and sash boxes that are set at the wall face. The entrance consists of a six-panel door with a rectangular fanlight above it, which has diagonal glazing bars. There is also a small projecting timber hood supported by wrought iron brackets. This cottage forms a pair with No. 9, although their facades are different.
