Round-headed door opening with limestone threshold to front elevation, having moulded render surround with splayed plinths and hood-moulding, having replacement glazed timber door surmounted by single-pane fanlight. Square-headed door opening to front (south) elevation of rear extension, having replacement timber panelled door.
