The inner bays have tripartite windows at ground floor with similar columnar mullions and triple-arched heads, 2-light windows at 1st floor in similar style to those of the outer bays, and a gabled half-dormer with ornamental barge-boards. Most windows retain original sashes without glazing bars. Ridge chimneys. Stepped side walls, with single-storey porches in the angle. Rear and interior not inspected.
