Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1910, having flat-roofed porch to front elevation, formerly also in use as public house. Hipped slate roof having clay ridge tiles and red brick chimneystacks. Painted lined-and-ruled rendered walls. Square-headed window openings having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows, with fixed timber display window to south end of façade. Pair of square-headed door openings to porch, having painted render name fascia above. Timber panelled door to house and half-glazed timber panelled door to former public house, with overlights. Two-bay single-storey outbuilding to north-west, with pitched corrugated-iron roof, painted rendered walls having some painted render quoins, circular window opening with timber wheel framed and square-headed timber panelled door. Post box to north of outbuilding attached to pole. Six-bay single-storey former public house to north, having some pitched thatched roof, now in ruins.

This former public house is set back from the road and commands the visual attention of the passer by. The building is enhanced by the retention of timber sash windows, timber doors and render signage. The dual entrance, with doors to the public house and dwelling house, helps to distinguish the structure.
