Some early crested ridge tiles. Rendered gable end chimney stacks. Plan: Overall L-shaped single depth plan; possibly originally a pair of houses, one with a central entrance in the shorter south wing which was probably a 2-room plan. The north east wing was probably another 2-room plan house with a central entrance and a later rear outshut. Exterior: Two storeys and attic. South front: regular 2-window range disposed towards the left. Late C19 or early C20 2-light casements in original openings with segmental brick arches with keystones. Central doorway with late C19 glazed porch with corner shafts and decorative timber cresting of a sort of fleur-de-lis pattern.

North east, right return: regular 4-window range, closer spaced to right, similar casements, first floor with horizontal glazing bars, all in original openings with segmental brick arches with keystones. Doorway to right of centre with rusticated rendered surround with keyblock and late c19 glazed and panelled door. Interior: Some of the ground floor partitions have been removed but the roof is probably the original with the collars nailed to the faces of the principal raters.
