The 4-window rear has openings under cambered stone heads. In the upper storey are 12-pane hornless sashes. In the lower storey is a replaced door to the L of centre, above which is a stone tablet with the name and date in raised letters and numerals. To the L and R of the doorway are 12-pane horned sash windows, of which the R-hand window, lighting the kitchen, is larger. Outbuildings are attached to the R-hand end.
