It features chequered brick and squared coursed lias with a slate roof and has a double-depth plan. The road-facing elevation is from the 19th century, constructed of brick and consisting of five windows with sashes and glazing bars set under flat arches. The central French doors are from the 20th century. The shallow pitched roof has brick stacks located at the ridge and eaves. The garden front, dating from the 18th century, has a three-window range of sashes with glazing bars and a steeply pitched roof with ashlar gable parapets, along with brick and stone stacks at either end. The interior has not been inspected.
