It has a twin pyramidal-capped clock and bell tower that contains elements of the Romanesque Revival style, such as arched entrances, yellow brick pilasters and arches, and corbelling. A large clock face on each of four sides of the left-hand tower, and the pyramidal roof has flag poles. The segmental-arched window openings are now bricked in.
