On the St Mirren Street elevation, the central block has three pointed arch windows at the ground floor, with a gabled door to the left and irregularly placed transomed windows above. There are two wallhead gables over the second floor, along with a corbelled stack that features a datestone on the right. The left bay is slightly advanced and includes segmentally-arched windows beneath a steep mansard roof. The High Street side has a two-window gabled bay, with a modern feature at the ground level. The roof is slate-covered and includes corniced stacks.
