Return elevation to Ashton Road of 3 bays. Entrance to right of centre of Greville Road elevation, in moulded brick archway beneath hipped roofed porch between 2 gables. Stairhall to right of doorway beneath stone coped gable, lit by stone traceried window.

Paired 2-light windows to lower floor of each gable, 3 grouped single-light windows to first floor and attic of right-hand gable, 4-light mullioned and transomed window on each floor of left-hand gable. Both have tile-hung apexes, and there is some diaper work in the left-hand gable.
