The building has a conical-roofed circular turret at the corner, which is slated, although the main roof is covered with modern tiles. The turret is designed in a giant order style and is flanked by stacks. Each front has a canted window in the furthest bay, and the elevations consist of four bays. The exterior is made of stone-cleaned ashlar, with shouldered lights at the first floor and plate glass sashes. Most of the corniced stacks are original.
