roof. C18 extension of brick, with extensive alterations and additions in
mid-C19 of dressed red sandstone, slate roof, brick chimney stacks. Tower of 2
storeys, single bay, has large projecting angle buttress to left (necessary

storey, single bay extensions with sloping slate roof. Entrance front looks
