Description

A castellated single-storey toll house of ashlar on a slightly battered base, and a cruciform plan comprising higher central bay and lower outer bays. Each has hipped slate roof behind embattled parapet, and higher round corner turrets with blind loops and battlements. The entrance is in the central bay, a Tudor-headed door with vertical ribs, studs and strap hinges. It is flanked by narrow leaded windows. Above it is a renewed frieze of octagons. A central blind upper opening has a renewed painted toll board, flanked by blind loops. Outer bays and end walls have Tudor-headed windows with diamond-leaded glazing. The rear has a similar window in the central bay, and similar openings to blind windows in the outer bays. The central bay also has a frieze matching the font.

The central bay is 2 rooms deep. Rooms have late C19 fireplaces.
