Four/four pane tripartite windows in raised surrounds to the first floor, that to the first floor left wing, under the gable, has a pediment on cornices over a single storey canted bay with a pierced stone parapet forming a balcony to the first floor window. Cornices on tall consoles, semicircular arches, moulded sills, margin panes and horizontal glazing bars to two/three pane sash windows to the ground floor, one to each side and two to the front of the bay and three to the set back right hand range with a similar flat balcony. The moulded coping and the ground floor cornice of the bays extend as string courses and encircle the building. A rectangular single storey porch to the centre of the left return between the external stacks with a window above, is similar to the canted bay with blind balustrades below fixed four pane windows, semicircular arches to the front and over the fanlight and four panel door.
