here, but no remains of it are visible. A 2 storey wing, built of cob

carried out improvements. Main front of house is 2 storey 5 windows stucco,
cornice, parapet, sash windows with glazing bars. Central Greek mutular

balustrade and Venetian window with ogee-headed arch, and fluted columns
between lights. Vaulted staircase hall has fluted pilasters and plasterwork
of similar date. Now with modern hotel addition, west.
