Two storeys, single pile, rubble stone, slate roof, tall squared end stack to right with decorative oversailing courses. Small, two-light, timber casement windows probably in their original openings.

Good quality C18 features with much structural ornamentation. Large open fireplace with chamfered timber lintel and later brick-lined bread oven. Chamfered and scroll-stopped beams and exposed joists, moulded brackets supporting beam ends. Substantial stud-wall partitions with chamfered and moulded door frames, one ornate timber door head has been reset in a doorway, now blocked, in the rear wall. First-floor door frames are chamfered with mason's mitres. Heavy boarded doors hung on gudgeon pins, some original window openings have chamfered and stopped lintels and scratch moulded cills. Unusual framed staircase has panelled string with lozenge decoration, scratch moulded newel posts and hand rails, flat barley-twist balusters and carved brackets on the underside.
