The front has a three-window arrangement, with three-light casements on the ground floor that have a combining hoodmould rising over a cambered-arched stone lintel above the central doorway, which also bears the date inscription. There are two outer two-light casements on the upper floor and a central single-light window, all fitted with iron casements. The cottage has two hipped attic dormers and gable end chimneys with moulded caps, including a paired shaft at the south-west end.
