Below these, a pair of elliptical arched carriage openings; the left one has a recessed 20th-century glazed screen, and the right one has a pair of board doors. To the left, three stone cross-mullioned windows are flanked by single chamfered doorways with heavy lintels and label moulds. Above the central window is a coat of arms.

A slightly set-back range features an oval window flanked by single round windows, with a 2-light casement with a chamfered stone mullion beyond. To the left of this, there are two 20th-century square windows. Below, a 2-light stone mullioned window is located to the right, with a small casement to its left, followed by three 20th-century square windows. The rear elevation has several renewed stone mullioned windows. The interior has not been inspected.
