Both doors are glazed and panelled. Above the doors, there are three 2-light flush mullion windows, all of which have 20th-century leaded lights.

In front of the building, there is an attached garden wall made of limestone rubble, topped with moulded gritstone copings, and featuring gritstone gate piers and an elaborate cast iron gate. At the rear, there is a 2-light ovolo moulded mullion and transom window. Inside, there is a bracketed stone fireplace.
