It is a three-bay design, facing south with a symmetrical front elevation. The exterior is whitewashed rubble, with a central front door and a small first-floor window in the raised east gable, which features crenellated wallhead detailing and flanking end stacks. The windows are fitted with four-pane glazing, and the roof is corrugated.
