Description

It is constructed of coursed squared limestone and features a plain-tile roof with brick end stacks. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a three-window range and a two-unit plan. The central door, which is from the 20th century, has a straight hood supported by brackets. There are three-light casement windows on both the ground and first floors, each with wooden lintels. The roof has three gabled dormers. The interior is noted for having spine beams.
