Three-part composition with two-storey, projecting centre section terminating in a facing gable with dentil cornice and swept eaves; 3-window range with oriel in centre set in round-arched recess; two units on each floor. To either side a single-storey recessed wing of two windows flanking a recessed entrance porch; half hipped to returns which are pierced by a roundel; broad swept eaves on wood brackets shelter concrete walkways to side units. Segmental-arched windows and round diaphragm arches to recessed entrance porches, that to centre with curved parapet having a 'Moorish' effect. Moulded stacks to short returns of centre range and a pair to rear roof slope of each wing. All units consisted of a bedroom, living room, scullery and WC, those to first floor with fire escapes at the rear. Features of note include: Rubbed brick plaque with mosaic decoration and inscriptions to peak of facing gable; mosaic paving to vestibules of entrances porches; classically styled stone memorial plaque to right return of central entrance porch; six inscribed foundation stones to plinth. According to original plans a two-storey extension to centre of rear with WCs and fire escape; WC's in outshut lean-to to each pair of units in lower wings.
