On the ground floor, there is a narrow doorway on the left that provides access to No. 23, and to the right, there is a wide pend. All the windows are single-light, sash and case style, with a six-pane upper part and a single pane lower part. The building has good quality graded slate roofs with end skews and both axial and end stacks. At the rear, there is a detached stable made of stone with granite quoins.
