Rubble construction, slate roofs. The chimneys have been removed, but illustrations show original shafted flues set on broad plinths. Very long facade of eleven bays and two storeys. Central five projecting bays are higher, with decorative bargeboards to wide gable each side of narrow entrance bay. Windows with stone voussoired cambered heads: all glazing replaced in plastic. The floor levels of the S three bays is slightly lower, suggesting that they are later additions. Small attic windows to gables, blocked to left. Central round-arched door with radiating fanlight. Left elevation, including rear wing, is rendered. Rear hall set parallel to central bays has slightly higher ridge-line and tall full-height windows. Between fourth and fifth bays to right is reset small cast-iron drinking fountain dated 1886 to back-plate: projecting semi-circular fluted pedestal with spout below decorative terminal.

Little original detail inside. Rear lecture hall has flat boarded ceiling divided into panels by heavy moulded ribs.
