Pitched slate roof with clay ridge tiles, brick chimneystacks indicating a tripartite internal arrangement, flat-roof to entrance porch, cast-iron rainwater goods.

Square-profile piers with chamfered edges and block cappings with forged-metal gates.
This is a well proportioned two-storey house makes an eyecatching roadside addition. The site is well integrated into the surrounding landscape, with the bridge approach wall forming part of the site boundary. It is in an area of historical interest with a Moravian burial ground immediately to the north and a former Moravian church site to the south across the river. The house retains much of its original form and materials which add to its character and charm.
