Description
The former police station is a two-storey building with three windows and a parallel rear range. It is constructed of squared, coursed rubble masonry with freestone dressings. The building features a steeply pitched slate roof that is hipped to the left but truncated on the right where a later house abuts. There is a stone stack at the left end. The rear range is similar in style and has a completed hipped roof. Notable architectural details include an ovolo moulded eaves cornice, rusticated quoins, and a plinth.
On the first floor, there are round-arched windows with rusticated architraves and 16-pane Gothic interlaced sashes. The ground floor features a similar window arrangement flanking a central doorway, which has a Gothic fanlight above a door with six fielded panels.
The rear range, which incorporates cells, is plainer, made of random coursed rubble masonry without an eaves cornice. It has rusticated round-arched architraves for the 12-pane sashes, which do not have interlacing. A similar window is present on the flank. At the rear, there is a high rubble wall that is flagstone capped, enclosing a small triangular yard.
The interior has been largely modernised for office accommodation.
