Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls.

Appraisal
One of a group of interesting structures associated with Monard and Coolowen Ironworks, spade and shovel manufacturing enterprise established by Abraham Beale in the late eighteenth century. Closed late as 1960. Symmetrical front showing evidence of conscious design. Enhanced by timber fittings and retention of roof slates.
