The south elevation facing High Street is symmetrical, featuring a panelled timber door at the center, flanked by windows in the outer bays. The first floor has regular windows, with a smaller window above in the chimney gablet and flanking 19th century rooflights. The wallhead was raised in the 19th century.

The north elevation displays a variety of architectural elements, including a projecting round stair tower at the center, a piended dormer window to the right, and a low 2-storey extension on the outer right. The timber sash and case windows have a 4-pane glazing pattern, and the building has ashlar coped skews and coped harled stacks with clay cans.
