Single storey, double-fronted cottage with thatched roof. Originally constructed before 1868 (present on Ordnance Survey 1:2500 1st edition map of that date).


An extension to one gable is now roofed with corrugated iron, but photographic evidence shows that this earlier had a double-pitched, thatched roof, the ridgeline of which was slightly lower than that of the cottage.


The property was acquired by the Manx Museum and National Trust in 1950.
