Pitched slate roof with black clay ridge tiles, replacement rear rooflights, brick chimneystack and metal gutters with cast-iron downpipes, and decoratively carved timber bargeboards on overhanging verges. Painted smooth rendered walling with rusticated ashlar block-and-start quoins, and with stepped-plan yellow brick dressings to openings of front and gable elevations. Square-headed window openings, those to gables set within round-headed recesses. Timber sliding sash one-over-one pane windows to front and rear elevations, single-light to porch sides and double-light to end bays.
