Square and camber-headed window openings with rendered sills throughout, having occasional remains of two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows, remainder boarded up. Round-headed door opening to front elevation. Camber-headed door opening with red brick voussoirs to rear elevation. Doors absent throughout.

Rendered walls having square-headed window opening with slate sill and timber casement window. Square-headed door opening with timber battened door.
The simple form of this house is enhanced by the retention of numerous historic features, including fine slate roofs, render details and the remains of sash windows. The house is further enhanced and contextualised by the retention of its associated outbuildings.
