High ground floor, plain ashlar to cill level, then above, bonded rustication. An entrance in each end bay. The ground floor, basement, supports a portico of giant Roman Doric columns rising through 2 floors the 3 centre bays being recessed behind them. The echinus of the order is carved with egg and dart. Above this a full entablature breaking forward over the columns, the frieze being decorated with circles. The elevation is then completed with a very deep parapet. First and second floor windows have architraves and pediments.' LISTED GRADE 2
