Doorway in left end of the taller left block flanked by similar windows but these have glazing bars. Thatch roof is gable-ended rising up to the tile-roofed left block. Timbers of the frame of relatively narrow scantling and include mostly straight braces but a large curving tension brace at the right end may indicate older origins for the building. The building backs onto the lane and the bank is revetted with coursed sandstone.
