Former farmhouse. In 2 main sections: a C15 range parallel with the road and

at the rear of the cross-wing. Timber framed, mainly cased in C19 red brick,
colourwashed at the front; plastered to rear. Pantiled roofs. 2 storeys with
attic to cross-wing. Windows mainly mid C20 casements with diamond-leaded
glass. C20 door. Gable stack to older range, internal stack in cross-wing.
The C15 range, now considerably altered, contained an open hall and a service

end with evidence for the service doorways. Little of the C15 structure is
visible and the open truss and original roof have been lost. C16 inserted

joists. Cross-wing substantially intact, with newel stairs and a first floor
arched brick fireplace.
