Rectangular single-cell plan with thicker bob wall (north) and a round 2-stage
chimney clasping the south-west corner. Machinery, floors, roof and framed and
weatherboarded 2nd floor and gable over bob wall, removed. The original masonry
including the south gable end and chimney virtually intact. 3 storeys. Round-headed openings. Large ground floor opening to middle of bob wall (north). Central opening to each floor of the opposite (south) gable end wall. Opening to the 2nd floor middle of each side wall and midfloor window below and slightly to the rear of each. The left hand (east) wall also has a 1st floor opening. The tapered 2-stage chimney is rubble to ridge level with moulded brick collar, surmounted by a tall brick upper stage with a moulded collar cornice.
Last fitted with a 70" pumping engine.
Now a picturesque ivy-clad ruin but still an unusually complete engine house.
