Rear (on street): 6-panel door, with Gothick-glazed overlight, to right of round-headed Gothick-glazed window, both beneath keyed rounded archivolts. Single-storey outshut at left with 12-pane sash. The quoined corners of the outshut are canted and finished with coved corbels at eaves level. Interior. Beaded joists throughout ground floor. Room to left contains a fine triple-arched hearth with a Wrelton range. In room to right of door, the original fireplace surround, with fluted jambs and corner roundels, is detectable behind a later fireplace. Railings. Square-section railings with urn finials, raised on a chamfered plinth, partly enclose a small garden.
