The first and second floors have regular fenestration, and there is a panel with flight holes for a pigeon loft in the attic. To the outer right, there is an enclosed forestair with a segmental-arched entrance and a red pantiled roof.
The north elevation features a two-storey wing and includes a 16th century bread oven in the garden. The building has 12-pane sash and case windows, a T-plan roof, and is covered with red pantiles.
