It features a roughcast exterior and a double Roman tile roof, along with brick stacks, including a large external stepped stack on the facade. The building has a three-cell and cross passage plan, is one and a half storeys high, and consists of four bays with irregularly placed windows.

Inside, there is a four-centred arch doorway made of timber frame with a brick infill partition to the right. The interior also includes chamfered beams with diamond stops, a chamfered lintel above the fireplace, and a similar chamfered beam with a timber and brick infill screen to the left.
