Ground floor with 2 stone and stuccoed brick ventilation hole openings with classically inspired tracery of 4 roundels enclosing quatre- foils, 2 first floor large rectangular windows, one blocked and one open but without tracery, rusticated stuccoed brick surrounds. Central doorcase with moulded architrave surround with imposts and keystone. Stone plinth, quoins stone at base, stuccoed brick above, stone string course and stone coped battlemented parapet. Returns with single ground and 2 first floor windows, central parapet battlements heightened as stacks. Interior previously of two floors.
