Description
This is a country house dating primarily from the early 18th century, with additions made in the early 19th century and around 1900. The house is constructed of brick with a hipped and gabled plain tile roof, featuring a first-floor band, cogged and dentillated eaves, coped gables with kneelers, and three ridge and two gable stacks. It is two storeys plus attics, originally with a square plan augmented by a wing to the south. The windows are generally glazing bar sashes with rubbed brick heads; casements in the south wing have segmental heads.
The main south front has a single-story, single-bay addition to the left, dating from the 19th century, with a coped parapet. The entrance is via a centrally positioned Classical doorcase with a door featuring Gothick tracery, flanked by three sashes to the left and two sashes to the right. The south wing to the right includes a panelled door with an overlight and a cross-mullioned casement. Above are five sashes and two cross-mullioned casements. Above again are three hipped dormers with casements. The double-gabled south wing features a casement in the return angle. The east side has a link to a single-story outbuilding, followed by two casements with segmental heads, a lean-to outbuilding with 20th-century glazing, a door flanked by a sash with segmental heads, and a round-headed stair light with Gothick tracery. An early 19th-century bow-fronted single-story addition, rendered with a flat coped parapet and a bowed triple sash with reeded pilasters, is also present. Above this addition are two casements and three sashes, all with segmental heads, along with a sash in the return angle and a gabled dormer with a leaded casement. An adjoining single-story brick outbuilding, three bays, has a hipped and gabled pantile roof. To the north, there is a close-boarded door and two casements.
The interior features an 18th-century dogleg staircase within a square well, including a panelled dado, vase and stem balusters, a moulded ramped and scrolled handrail, turned newels, and an ornamented string. There are several early 19th-century four-panel doors with original fittings. Outside, an 18th-century brick boundary wall approximately 25 meters long extends to the southeast, featuring brick coping. A gateway with a segmental head and spearhead iron gate is also part of the wall.
