Thatched roof, hipped at right-hand end. Large chimney-stack of rendered, 20C brick in centre of ridge. 1 storey. 2 window front with doorway in the middle. Windows and door early 20C, imitating early 19C; windows with leaded panes. In apex of left-hand gable a slit window which appears to have an old, thick wooden frame.
