ground floor rendered and painted and first floor laid in red bricks with blue brick headers. Diaperwork
prominent on gable facing road in form of diamonds. Shallow pitch former slate roof now laid in modern machine made tiles. Despite alterations this building retains its basic proportions in particular its characteristic narrow gable widths and by virtue of its position close to the road edge and at the
junction with Moreton Lane is visually prominent. For these reasons it is considered to be locally important. A local note building within the conservation area of Bishopstone (B1).
