Billing Arbours Farmhouse is an early to mid 19th century building constructed from squared rubble with ashlar dressings. It features a hipped Welsh slated roof with a wide eaves cornice and has two storeys along with cellars. The centre of the facade is recessed, and it has a symmetrical arrangement of sash windows with glazing bars in reveals, set under flat arches, arranged in a 1:1:1 pattern. There is a cast iron porch, and the lower two windows on the slightly recessed west wing are also present. The front door has six flush panels, of which two are now glazed, and there is a rectangular fanlight above the door, also with glazing bars.
