EXTERIOR: 1 storey. Triple gabled east front with large doorway to timber store on left and smaller doorway to workshop on right. North side, a large 4-light window with overlapping panes. South and west elevations have timber louvres. Later garage and small store additions on east front.

NOTE: The Guild of Handicrafts, founded by C.R. Ashbee in 1888, moved from Whitechapel in 1902 to the Old Silk Mill in Chipping Campden, when about 100 people , craftsmen and their families, came to this site in Gloucestershire from London. This building was an extension of the workshop and timber storage facilities.
