House, originally known as Adamroyd. Single cell mid C17 with added larger
square house, double-pile-on-plan under single span roof hipped to one end.
Large dressed stone to earliest part, watershot masonry, stone slate roof.
2 storeys. South front retains 2-light double chamfered mullioned window
(lacking mullion) over doorway. Main house has quoins and double chamfered
mullioned windows of 7 lights to each floor to south and 5 lights (lacking some
mullions) to north. Return wall faces west and has 2 bays of 3-light flat faced
mullioned windows to each floor the central light of which was sashed. 2 stacks
