Description
The Mansion House and outbuilding is a house dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of coursed squared gritstone with quoins, featuring coped gables with moulded kneelers, intermediate and gable end brick stacks, and a Welsh slated roof with stone slated eaves. The building is two storeys high with attics and has three bays, including tall gabled dormers with attic windows.
Originally, the house had stacked 2-light flush mullioned windows, which still exist in the gabled dormers and have glazing bar casements. The first-floor windows have had their mullions removed and now feature 20th-century casements in flush surrounds. The ground floor windows have been significantly altered, with the pair at the north end being tall, stone-framed openings with fixed lights. Between these windows and the doorway is a 2-light flush mullioned window with Gothic glazing bars. The window at the south end has an altered quoined surround and a 20th-century frame.
The doorway is off-centre and has a plain stone surround with a 20th-century door. At the rear, there is a long two-storey crosswing with coped gables, brick chimneys, and two glazing bar sashes on the central first floor of the south elevation. Additionally, there is a former barn that now serves as an outbuilding at the west end, featuring ventilation slits in the upper parts of the walling.
