Description

L-plan single storey structure in local rubble with slate roof, very wide bracketed eaves and tall red brick chimney stack. To the left is a cross range with broad 2 + 2-window gable end; horned 12-pane sash windows lighting the warden's accommodation. Lean-to porch in the angle to right and beyond are small pivot windows just below eaves, grouped in 3 pairs and lighting individual cells; raised ventilator and skylight to ridge. Five windows to rear of gabled cross range and beyond is a full width lean-to with massive lintels over the full height recesses in which are retained the cast iron plates with small round holes - formerly upright in ramped frames. Behind these are 4 pane casement windows.

Inside there are 12 cells opening off a tall corridor; those on the SW side are of 2 chambers, one for sleeping and one for working, the latter is stepped down and with cobbled floor; the former has a boarded floor; those on the NE side have only the sleeping area. Boarded doors, most with small lights and rounded ventilation holes in the corridor walls. Original fittings retained in washroom at SE end opposite which was probably the dining room.
