Former toll house thought to have been originally built in the 19th century for the Devon and Dorset Turnpike Trust. It is a single storey building, taking the form of a lodge cottage, with an angled bay at the front. The bay has Gothick arch headed windows and doorway, and a porch which opens onto the road. The slate roof is hipped, the section over the bay extending down from the ridge.
