The centre has a large segmental-headed archway with red sandstone springing blocks and a moulded brick head with a foliated terracotta keystone; a canted stone oriel rising into the tower, which has a brick corbel table and a steep pyramidal roof with a steep canopied dormer to the front. The 3-window range to the left has a tall segmental-headed doorway in the centre, a tall half-dormer above this with a corbelled head and half-hipped roof with barge-boarding and an apex finial; and 2 windows on each floor, that to the left at ground floor altered, that to the right segmental-headed, and those above shouldered with stone lintels.
