South end of building apparently raised partly over now demolished lower building. Pitched slate roof having rendered ridge tiles, chimneystack and copings to gables, with cast-iron rainwater goods. Front elevation has exposed roughly coursed punch-dressed limestone walls having rendered eaves course, with elaborately carved Joyce family crest with later inscribed date of 1786 and reused medieval window spandrel. Metal plaque to family also to front elevation. Painted rendered wall to middle of ground floor and to south gable. Square-headed window openings having limestone voussoirs and sills, with timber sliding sash windows, three-over-three pane to top floor and six-over-six pane to lower floors. Square-headed door openings, that to north end being carriage arch and having limestone voussoirs and double-leaf replacement timber doors, and those to middle having timber battened doors with overlights.
