Various casement windows, all with small-scale diagonal leading. Facing driveway three-bay open arcade with four-centred arches to plain chamfered surrounds, on two steps, with two-light casements flanking pair of doors with small diagonal panels, all to casement mould surrounds, in main wall. Above wide gable with crenellated oriel between square sunk panels with plain raised shields, each side of gable has deep projecting stone eaves on stone brackets. East front has gablet with canted oriel to stepped bracket and stone roof over three-light casement to hollow-mould mullions with stopped drip course, to left four-centred opening giving to the arcade.

Each side haunched supporter, at right attached to Lodge, and to left to short length of boundary wall in two steps.
