Attic: 3 round-arched dormers with 6-pane sashes and overlights. Rear: front range has external stack with small 1st floor window on right. Timber-framed range has 6-panel part glazed door and variety of C20 windows. Interior: front range at rear has 6 panel door (near stair) and short section of chamfered spine-beam with stepped cyma stop. Timber-framed range: frame survives best on 1st floor, where there are jowelled wall posts, close-studded wall framing with long arched braces up to wall-platts and tie-beams; in central bay a 2-light window with diamond-set mullion to rear wall and later 2-light window to right bay; tie-beams support crown posts which have straight braces up to collar purlin (some braces removed), old rafters, apparently smoke-blackened in end bays but not in centre. Ground floor retains some old wide spaced joists and floorboards, and a sawn-off chamfered spine beam in right bay. The front range probably replaces a pre-existing timber-framed building.
