It features a two-cell plan and is double-depth, standing two storeys high with a symmetrical three-bay facade. The building has quoins at the corners and a doorway with monolithic jambs and an overlight, flanked by 16-pane sash windows that have plain stone surrounds and projecting sills. There is an eaves band along the roofline, with gable coping, kneelers, and tall ashlar stacks. The gable has a returned eaves band and a blind Venetian window set in the apex.
