The ground floor has eight stilted arched carriage openings of which three remain open and five have been closed with a brick wall and a 5-light window above. There are also two doorways and a window, 4 + 4 casement in a elliptical head. There are four carriage openings to either side of a central round arched access to the steps up to the first floor. The first floor has eight windows 6 + 6 casements, and an imitiation painted 3 x 3 window.
