House. Probably late C16 with possible earlier remains. Timber-framing and brick with tile roof. H-plan. Two storeys. East wall has recessed centre of three bays, cased in brick. The windows are casements with segmental heads. The door, in the middle bay, has a wooden frame inscribed: "1748". This date may refer to the brick casing. The cross-wings are framed in square panels and have V-struts above the collars. The left-hand cross-wing is of one bay and has a gabled stair turret against its right-hand return wall. The lower part of the right-hand wing is covered by later brick additions. Chimneys, on side walls of cross-wings and to right of left-hand cross-wing, have diagonal shafts. The west wall is similar, with a two-bay centre and exposed framing to the wings.

Interior not inspected.
