Hipped artificial slate roof with replacement metal rainwater goods supported on a dentilled cornice to eaves. The central single-bay breakfront has a large pediment with natural slate covering and terracotta dentil cornice supported by a pair of red brick pilasters flanking a recessed frame with egg-and-dart frame and a modern inscribed panel. Red brick walls lay in stretcher bond with a red brick pilaster flanking each bay. Camber-headed window openings with a fluted terracotta keystone and terracotta cyma reversal stringcourse. Nosed limestone sills with uPVC windows. The breakfront has a single round-headed window opening with red brick voussoirs and terracotta fluted keystone and uPVC window on a nosed limestone sill course to the entire breakfront. Similar round-headed door opening with a terracotta rosette to either side and a modern hardwood double-leaf timber-panelled door opening onto three limestone steps and flanked by a low rendered wall with red brick plinth course and a moulded limestone coping supporting wrought-iron railings and a pair of wrought-iron gates.
