plank doors, one with ornate ironwork. At the west side, a timber-framed
extension with a slighly lower roof-line, faced in C19 red brick, has slatted
windows in segmental-arched openings. On the south, a small single-storey red
brick extension. The frame of the main range is in 6 bays, including a narrow
