The ground floor has 3 and 9-pane windows, the broader of which are set on alternate sides. Round arched headed doorway to NE with 6-panel door and 5-pane fanlight. Pebbledash modernised block with rubble plinth that is contemporary with the octagonal block; 1-small-pane casement retained. Gable and porch to SE side; gabled S end.
