Garth Road elevation has two storeys below undulating roof and rendered end chimneys. Three first floor windows (nine small panes in horned sashes with narrow glazing bars). On ground floor, flanking central doorway, larger three part sash windows divided by wood mullions . Doors and windows offset to right of front to accommodate large living room fireplace at left end of building. Small square window in E gable. At rear, windows somewhat altered. Dormer in roof with window lighting stairs. Rear 2-storey wing at right angles with some very small rubble masonry still visible. Gable facing N weatherboarded as is upper part of E wall.

Boarded front door gives onto small hall with dogleg stair. To right, small parlour behind which is former dairy, which retains oak shutters and iron bars to N facing window. To left, living room, behind which is kitchen in earlier wing. Details of worked timber suggest later 18th century date with plain beams and joists, boarded doors and partitions. Roof over Garth Road block has standard late king post truss, and plastered rafters suggest that part of roof space was once used as living accommodation.
