Later lean-tos built across front elevation of higher end. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 2-window front, breaking forward at the higher end.

C20 one-light window to lower end. 4-window rear elevation, most of the windows reglazed with C20 diamond leaded casements. Front door modern but probably on site of former passage. INTERIOR: Hall has good chamfered stopped cross beams and scratch moulded joists. Plainer crossbeams to lower end. Roof: Apex inaccessible.
