Full-height round-arched window recesses, set back in pointed arched panels to either side: flat stone lintels to lower windows, round arched heads above with impost bands. Above the entrance, a composite geometric window in round-arched recess with triple round-arched lights with continuous impost band and quatrefoil window above. Decorative quoining to angles, and ball finials to gable coping. 5-window return elevations, 2 storeyed, with round arched upper windows, and shaped stone lintels to lower openings. Windows all sashes with margin lights. School room forms a separate range at right angles to the rear, linked to the chapel by a single storeyed lobby.
