It is two storeys high, with a rubble stone base and a gable wall facing the street. The upper part is timber-framed, featuring plastered panels on the sides and brickwork in the gable, which includes some herringbone patterns made with red and blue bricks. The roof is covered with old tiles.
The building has small casement windows, including a three-light window in the gable with old leaded glazing on the first floor. The left side of the building features two dormers, one at each end. There is a low stone range on the right with a tiled roof. An oak front door is located on the left, while a modern garage is situated on the right, which continues into a thatched range belonging to No 121.
