This small, late 19th or early 20th century, rectangular, single-storeyed brick and harled building has a gabled slate roof, a brick pilastered three-bay frontage and round-arched windows. Above the door in the gable is a round sandstone plaque, and at the apex of the gable there is a fine ornamental iron finial. This building may well have been associated with the neighbouring 'Brown's Institute'.
