The exterior is constructed of ashlar stone, with the ground floor channelled and polished ashlar used for the dressings. There are two three-bay shop fronts and a central flat-arched entrance leading to a pend. The first and second floor windows are adorned with moulded architraves, with the first-floor windows featuring alternating segmental and triangular friezes, a cornice, and a low parapet. The building has two canted dormers and two flat-roofed dormers, all with four-pane glazing. It is topped with a slate roof and has corniced stacks at the ends and ridge. There are wings at the rear that are close to the main structure.
