This is a one-story stone warehouse constructed of randomly laid native stone. To the right of center there is a metal overhead door, with a single pedestrian door on its right. The three windows are one-over-one, with two on the left and one on the right. There are no windows on the building sides.
The parapet is stepped, with brick coping. The building is currently vacant, but was recently occupied by a towing company.
On the upper wall above the overhead door is a concrete stone engraved:
County Warehouse
Erected 1935
by
Co. Com. H.T. Brown
Supv. H.E. Webb
The building has the feel of a WPA-constructed structure, and the date would be appropriate, but we saw no sign that it was funded by the WPA.
