The building has diagonal braces and a thatched roof with a central brick stack. It is 1½ storeys high and consists of 2 bays. The ground floor has paired leaded windows, with one on the left and two on the right. The first floor has three-light barred wooden casements beneath the thatch. There are lean-to extensions at each end, made of whitewashed brick with some slight framing and tiled roofs. The left extension has a single leaded casement, while the right has a gabled weatherboarded porch and a single leaded light to the right. There is also a lean-to at the rear. Inside, there is a staircase featuring a short row of 18th-century twisted balusters on the ground floor.
