The building has a hipped slate roof, including the wings, and rendered chimney stacks. It is two storeys high with five bays, flanked by two-storey, single-bay wings. The entrance is marked by a semicircular Doric tetrastyle porch, which has a triglyph frieze and a moulded cornice. The porch includes a glazed door with a semicircular glazed fanlight, flanked by engaged Tuscan columns, topped with a block entablature and a pedimented cornice. The sash windows, which have glazing bars, are surrounded by plain stone. Outbuildings are not included in this listing.
