Slate roof to house, corrugated iron to attached barn, gabled at either end.

C20 concrete and glazed leanto porch to right of centre and to its right is plank door to barn. Interior: hall fireplace has chamfered, slightly cambered, wooden, lintel with hollow step stops. Chamfered cross beam with bar and hollow step stops. At lower end of hall is another beam which has had a wall inserted beneath it and the same has happened at the lower side of the passage suggesting that there were originally screens there. In the barn below the passage it can be seen that the dividing wall is cement blocks. The barn has 3 heavy cross beams roughly chamfered, one of which rests on a chamfered wooden corbel at the front.
