painted stone dressings, and limestone rubble; Welsh-slate roof with brick
stack. Double-depth plan. 3 storeys. Symmetrical 5-window front, with

ground-floor wall, and is brick above. Central doorway has a wide plain
architrave with double-stepped keyblock, and a flat canopy with dentil cornice
on scroll brackets, and it is flanked by wide tripartite sashes, probably a

outer bays which are blind and have painted glazing bars; all have wedge lintels
and projecting stone aprons. A large stack rises from the rubble return wall to
