A coastal 'fisherman's cottage', with some surviving historic features, and two large fireplaces internally. The cottage dates from the 1780s, although the structure of a corbelled fireplace suggests earlier origin, possibly 17th century.

Single storey with attic, five-bay, modern single storey extension to north incorporates earlier rear wall. Pitched pantile roof, formerly thatched, rendered corniced chimneys at ends, three dormers.
