Hipped slate roof with red brick chimneystacks having yellow brick band, cast-iron rainwater goods and overhanging eaves. Pebbledashed walls with painted render plinth. Square-headed openings with one-over-on pane timber sliding sash windows and painted stone sills. Round-headed opening to rear (west) elevation. Segmental-headed opening with moulded render surround having timber doorcase comprising timber panelled door flanked by carved pilasters and sidelights supporting cornice with fanlight above. L-plan multiple-bay single-storey range of outbuildings to rear. Pitched slate roofs, hipped to east. Roughly dressed limestone walls. Round-headed openings with red brick voussoirs and wrought-iron gates. Square-profile rendered gate piers to yard flanking wrought-iron gates.
Little alteration has occurred to this building making it a fine example of a farm house of the late nineteenth century. The retention of its original character is notable in features such as the timber sash windows, fine doorcase and stair window. Of particular notice is the tall red and yellow brick chimneystacks. The range of outbuildings to the rear with contrasting brick and stone construction add further to the setting and architectural importance of this site.
