Detached double-pile three-bay two-storey house with, built c.1910, with dispensary to rear and gabled bays to front and rear.
Located on a corner within the small settlement of Blue Ball, this one-time dispensary played an important social function to the locality in the past. Despite a change in function it has maintained its original form and much fabric. Of obvious architectural design, the use of red brick to highlight the architectural form enlivens the façade and creates an aesthetically pleasing contrast with the rendered walls. Altogether this striking structure, together with its rear outbuilding makes a vital contribution to the locality.
