The front and south elevations are of two storeys with three garage-door openings; the first floor has a loading door and two high-level windows. There is a lean-to extension on the rear.

April 2021. Heritage assessment.
The building was constructed in the 18th century as a single storey two-bay cart lodge associated with the nearby properties of Maldon Wycke (EHER 38493) and Maldon Hall (EHER 38490). At a later date, sometime before 1838, the cart lodge was extended with three more bays to the west and with a second storey granary. Subsequently, in the 20th century, a single-storey lean-to was added to the northern elevation. At a similar time a series of garage doors and windows were installed on the building's southern elevation and a substantial amount of the timber frame was rebuilt using machine-cut timber, probably due to damage or a collapse. <2>
