The north elevation facing Cromwell Road has the first floor at street level, with a stone walkway leading to a part-glazed timber door at the centre, which is topped by a two-leaf fanlight. There are windows in the flanking bays. The first-floor windows have 4-pane glazing in timber sash and case style, while the ground floor features modern uPVC windows. The roof is covered with clay pantiles, and there are coped ashlar stacks and skews.
The boundary walls and railings include semicircular coping with arrowhead cast-iron railings to the south and coped rubble boundary walls to the north.
