Diminishing square-headed window openings with render sills and surrounds. Six-over-six pane timber sliding sash windows to ground floor and six-over-three pane timber sliding sash windows to first floor. Recent two-over-two pane timber sliding sash window ground floor of side (west) elevation. Replacement four-over-four pane timber sliding sash windows to bowed bay openings. Recessed round-headed door opening to front elevation within render surround with pilasters surmounted by cornice, having glazed timber door surmounted by spoked fanlight. Square-headed door openings to rear elevation having double-leaf glazed timber doors. Single-storey multiple-bay former stable block to north. Set within own grounds having extensive gardens to front and rear. Rendered enclosing wall with square-profile gate piers to north.
An attractive former mill manager’s house, which retains much of its historic fabric including a fine slate roof and timber sash windows. As the only surviving building which related to the now demolished flour mill to the north-east, it is a noteworthy reminder of the area's industrial heritage.
