Colourwashed render over cob and stone; gabled slate roof; C19 brick end and ridge stacks; C17 external stone rear lateral stack. 3-unit plan with blocked through-passage to right of central hall. 2 storeys; 5-window range. Central bay slightly projects and has early C19 porch; 6-panelled door with dolphin knocker and overlight. Flat arches over C20 three-light casements and late C19 three-light casement to left of porch; early C19 horizontal-sliding sashes on first floor, except C20 two-light casement to left of centre. Mid C19 outshut to rear. One-bay extension of c. 1980 to left. Interior: room to left has stop-chamfered bressummer over open fireplace and boxed beam; blocked open fireplace to centre. First floor has late C17 moulded plaster cornices in two rooms to left of stairs. Late C17 A-frame roof with pegged collars and ridge purlin set into notched apexes. Subsidiary features: C20 extension to left is attached to early C19 one-storey outbuilding, of slatestone with slate roof, which flanks left-hand side of front garden. An early/mid C19 L-shaped wall of slatestone, with ashlar coping, piers and iron gate, encloses the front garden and is returned to the right end of the farmhouse; at this point, the wall encloses a well. Wall thicknesses and floor levels suggest that the unit to the right of the porch is of earlier date.
