yard at its head (south end) and 2-storeyed ranges running off to west and east.
The 3-storeyed range has a quoined, shouldered arch across the road, and a lower,
segmental arch with rusticated voussoirs and spandrels across river. Many
small-paned windows with stone lintels and continuous cill bands. Ashlar coping.
The Greenwoods also built here a row of cottages and a school (Hodgson, p 219).
