Constructed from rough-faced coursed grey granite, finely finished to the margins, with projecting cills to the ground floor, a dividing band course, first floor cill and lintel course, eaves blocking course and predominantly modern two-pane timber-framed glazing.

The first floor windows have a finely finished entablature above, a navel-like paterae frieze surmounted by pediments. The grey slate roof has a lead ridge, coped stone skews with blocked skewputts, coped granite wallhead and gablehead stacks with octagonal and circular cans and cast-iron rainwater goods. There is a low granite ashlar boundary wall to the east and rubble walls to the west with brick coping.
