Above this is an inset slate plaque inscribed with the date 1762 and the initials RMW. Under the eaves are two small 2-light, unglazed windows with wooden frames. At the far R is an upper, wooden- framed entrance, with stone-stepped access. The left-hand section has a segmentally-arched entrance with slate-stone voussoirs and a pegged oak frame; boarded door. A later C19 lean-to adjoins the L gable end, with a low boarded and framed entrance to the road side.

Plain rear with large corrugated iron doors to the lean-to section. The rear wall of the later section was found to have partly collapsed at the time of survey.
