former solar, set in wall here a sundial with motto "As shadows so man's
life doth go" and date 1613. Also rear C20 extension. Internally the
ceiling beams have scroll-stop chamfers except in the East room, where

survive; otherwise the internal fittings such as staircase and doorways

position: site of former winding stair identifiable adjacent to central
fireplaces: all fireplaces C20 early replacements. Despite its C18
remodelling a very good survival.
