Segmental-arched carriage entrance faced with stucco or stone, the bracketed arch with panelled soffit, console, keystone, panelled spandrels and dentil cornice. All windows flat-arched, that over the arch being tripartite with shouldered architrave, panelled mullions carrying consoles, entablature and central pediment; other windows with gauged brick heads; storey band level with cornice to arch bay, dentil cornice to the rest; attic storey with parapet, that part to west and over entrance lacking blocking course and stuccoed parapet.
