Replaced casements in earlier openings in gable, and in the upper and lower storeys. C20 door with projecting flat hood. N wall of cross-wing roughcast, with lean-to in random rubble, which has corrugated metal roof and brick stack. Timber framing of rear wall of cross-wing largely renewed, or rebuilt in brick painted black to imitate timber. Replaced casement window in gable, and inserted casements in upper and lower storeys. Outshut roughcast on a stone platform, with lately inserted door. Gabled wing at rear is 2 storey with slate roof and end brick stack. On the S side an iron-framed casement window under wall plate, and an iron-framed casement in the lower storey under a stone segmental head. Extension of main range to S has end brick stack. In the front iron-framed casement under wall plate and double glazed doors under a wedge lintel. Rear wall roughcast.
