Brick, whitewashed or plastered; hipped slate roofs. Plan of 3 parallel ranges,
all separately roofed, the principal rooms are situated to the garden (right-hand)
end of the ranges, and to either side of the entrance; to this was added a late C19

Entrance front (west): symmetrical 3 window range; all windows with 12-pane
hornless sashes. Central porch: 2 Tuscan columns, moulded entablature open to

Some 1st floor windows with blind housings. Hornless sash windows to rear.
Attched to rear is a contemporary conservatory, quite small, with a central area
and side aisles. The original owner was an enthusiastic gardener.
