c.1700 end parapet. Circa 1700 west end stack of two flues with recessed
panel to each side. Asymmetrical facade reflects the two principal building
periods. Seven window range of recessed hung sashes, C19, at first floor with

The rest of the house is of the lighter red brickwork, probably C19. At the

brick. The range to the road was enlarged at the rear c.1874. Interior was
remodelled in C19. Open string staircase with stick balusters, turned newels
