Roughcast rendered walls, rendered, ruled and lined to gable end, with stone string course. uPVC casement windows. Replacement timber panelled door set into flat-roofed porch extension. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimney stack. Extension to rere of property.
An attractive house, set alongside the lock, which has echoes of the earlier, more elaborate lock keeper's houses such as that at the 11th lock to the west. Adds character and variety to the immediate vicinity.
