Red brick in English bond with limestone dressings, some exposed false framing, and some tile-hanging, roofed with machine-made red clay tiles. Complex plan facing approximately W, with 2 internal and 3 external stacks. 2 storeys with attics and cellars. All windows are casements, many with rectangular leading; all on the ground floor, and some on the first floor, have chamfered stone surrounds and moulded stone mullions, some also with moulded transoms. 3 first-floor windows are oriels supported on profiled brackets with exposed false framing in the gables; 2 of them have brick nogging below the windows in oblique square pattern. 2 gabled dormers with exposed false framing.
