Pitched slate roof on strutted King post timber construction with clay ridge tiles, lichen-covered rock faced cut-limestone battlemented crow stepped coping to gables with rendered chimney stacks to apexes having stringcourses below capping supporting yellow terracotta pots, and cast-iron rainwater goods on timber eaves boards retaining cast-iron downpipes. Limewashed roughcast walls. Series of six segmental-headed carriageways with concealed red brick voussoirs.
