There are rusticated quoins at ends and on the slightly projecting centre bay. There is a moulded brick string course and a modillion cornice with egg and dart decoration also extends around central pediment. Inside there is an elaborate entrance hall with an Ionic columned screen and early Georgian style staircase with turned balusters and carved trend ends.
