At the rear, there is a tall square tapering chimney. The building includes quoins and a lean-to at the front, which has a flag roof and a former cart entrance. A modern stone flat-roofed showroom has been added in front. The older part of the building has a stone-flagged floor. The gable end facing the street is equipped with a hoist and warehouse doors.
