The middle and upper storeys are cream-painted pebble-dash with smooth-rendered quoin strips, architraves and upper storey sill band. The slate roof has end stacks. The wide central entrance is under a pediment, with recessed double folding half-glazed panel doors. It is flanked by pedimented cross windows.
