A symmetrical front has shallow projecting wings, clasping

storey with a moulded coping; side entrances and a full
right-hand elevation.
Wings have 3-light bays with balustrades, ground-floor windows

windows, and incised surrounds to attic windows; sashes, some
with horizontal bars. Left-hand late C20 concrete entrance
block.
Right-hand elevation has a symmetrical 3-window range set to

3-light bow. A long single-storey covered passage extends from
the doorway, with a side arcade of 3:3:2 semicircular-arched
windows separated by panelled pilasters, casements with
fanlights and a balustrade of linked rings; an open porch at
the end has a semicircular arch, side lunettes and clasping
pilasters. INTERIOR not inspected.
The detail and fenestration are closely modelled on
