Square-headed opening with timber panelled half-glazed door. Square-headed opening to rear with timber battened door and overlight. Detached three-bay two-storey outbuilding to south-west with pitched corrugated-iron roof with rendered chimneystack, rubble stone walls and square-headed openings with metal fittings. Remains of outbuilding to west comprising rubble stone walls. Rendered square-profile piers to site entrance.
Horizontal emphasis and long elevation form imposing façade. Early date indicated by steeply pitched roof, proportions and fenestration rhythm.
