Summary Description

The two details which charcterise the exterior most strongly are the wilful fenestration and the striking variegated brickwork. A simple arcading encompasses all the walls at half-way up the windows instead of below sill level; it is executed in black with the arches filled with grey bricks. Throughout it is flush with the wall surface. There is in addition a cross in black brick on the porch gable surrounded by cusping in the same colour, and a simple diaper on the bell-cote.
