Long rectangular building on north-east/south-west axis parallel with former stamps on north-west side and overlooking dressing floor on south-east side, with small projecting engine house in the centre of that side. Single storey, 11 bays, symmetrical, with gabled engine house in centre of south-east side, large round-headed windows (mostly now with broken heads), and symmetrical 3-bay gable walls with central doorway flanked by windows and a third window over the door (west gable wall damaged). History: built on top of six former buddles to house 20 Frue vanner machines, as part of general improvements to West Basset Mines during a period of prosperity.
