The narrow windows feature plastered lintels; the ground floor of the first bay has a plastered mullion and casements, the second bay on the first floor has small-paned fixed glazing with an opening light, the third bay contains a fire window, and the fourth bay has 20th-century windows with casements. The entrance has a segmental arch, and the inner entrance features a wide-boarded studded door with strap hinges. There is a large projecting gable-end stack and a stack at the former gable end. The rear of the farmhouse has large and small lean-to outshuts and a blocked light with a label mould on the first floor. Inside, there are chamfered beams and a heck partition. The spice cupboard has a fielded-panelled door inscribed with "RWM" and a drawer below inscribed with "1707."
