The cottage is two storeys high with an attic, and has three bays. A central doorway and 20th-century two-light wooden casement windows have voussoired heads with keystones. 20th-century dormers have been added to the roof. The interior has not been inspected. The cottage contributes significantly to the group value of the nearby Church of All Saints.
