The west gable has a crow-stepped top; the east gable has skewbacks with moulded skewputt details and corniced end stacks. The cottage has a door to the left, added around 1979, and three sash windows. One bay of the cottage has a blocked opening. It features an off-centre corniced stack and pantile roofs. The cottage adjoining Rose Cottage is listed for group value only.
