High moulded and stepped eaves, almost flat roof; 4 tall brick stacks with bracketed cornices; one pair of original chimney pots. Square-headed moulded architraves to openings, the window glazing now missing or boarded over (formerly double-hung sash and casement windows with paired central glazing bars). Banded freestone quoins to outer bays; the windows here are linked vertically with ornamental panels, each bearing a coronet over a cartouche head of Lord Mostyn with parchment scroll inscriptions beneath. Wide terracotta panel with scrolls and foliage above central doorway. This is now boarded but formerly had double panelled doors, and is flanked by single window openings. There was formerly a lean-to iron canopy over the ground floor, the cast iron openwork brackets with scrolled decoration still surviving.
