A single window is located on the first floor above the doorway. The outer bays feature corniced tripartite windows at the ground floor, with single windows above on the first floor. To the outer right, there is a single-storey flat-roofed addition.

On the west elevation, there is a modern lean-to entrance porch and two corniced wallhead stacks. The east elevation features a single-storey addition at the ground floor and two corniced wallhead stacks.

The windows are timber sash and case, with plate glass glazing on the front and 8-pane windows on the rear. The roof is piended slate with metal flashings, and there are five wallhead stacks with octagonal cans. The building has a moulded eaves gutter. The interior was not seen in 1992.
