Pitched slate roof, clay ridge tiles, unpainted smooth-rendered corbelled chimneystacks one on ridge of main roof and other on gable of extension, half-round cast-iron gutters on eaves corbel course. Painted roughcast walling. Square-headed window openings, smooth-rendered reveals, painted stone sills, painted two-over-two timber sash windows. Square-headed entrance door opening, painted vertically-sheeted timber door, original brass door furniture. Set back from road, gravelled forecourt between house and road, garden to east, south and west, metal gate, limewashed smooth-rendered boundary walls.
This house is a good example of the vernacular building tradition with its plain façade and balanced arrangement of window openings. It retains a significant amount of original and early fabric and is an attractive feature on a busy main road.
