Timber-framed, plaster-rendered with plain tile roof and tall early C18 red and gault brick stack to the side of the ridge. Three bays and now with lobby-entry plan. Three dormers and three recessed hung sashes with glazing bars. Circa 1840 doorcase of fluted pilasters with plain entablature and dentil cornice. The rear, originally a separate cottage, is C17 and also timber-framed and plaster-rendered. Plain tile roof with ridge stack."
