A doorway is located in the third bay from the left and has a wooden lintel and a 20th-century door. There is a 2-light casement window in a plain stone surround with an old iron casement in the left bay. The second bay from the left has a 2-light casement window with a wooden lintel. A blocked one-light window with a moulded stone surround is visible to the right of the entrance. Further to the right is a 2-light casement window with a wooden lintel, and a one-light window with a wooden lintel in the right bay. The first floor features 2-light casement windows with stone lintels incorporating keyblocks, with the window in the second bay from the right being blocked. The building has a nogged brick cornice and coped gable ends with kneelers. The interior has not been inspected.
