Both floors have round-headed openings: at ground floor three large doorways to the centre protected by a three-bay porch which has segmental arches on columns with stiff-leaf capitals; stained glass windows in the outer bays, with imposts and keystones.
At first floor the centre has an arcaded five-light window with pilaster mullions and linked hoodmoulds, small-pane leaded glazing and circular heads with stained glass; the outer bays have matching one-light windows.One-bay return walls in matching style; and three-bay rear range in plainer style, with pilasters and coupled round-headed windows on both floors. Attached at right-angles to rear of this is a single-storey former Sunday School, with a steeply pitched gabled facade which has tall round-headed windows.
