Description
This is a late 18th-century manor house. It is constructed of coursed limestone rubble with a Welsh slate roof composed of two parallel gables, finished with stone coping. The gable end faces the road. The house has three storeys. The south-western elevation features three sash windows with glazing bars on the first and second floors. The ground floor has two sash windows framing a segmental-headed doorway with a five-panel door and a decorated fanlight. Flat-roofed stone extensions project from the north-eastern and north-western elevations, and a small brick addition is located at the south-eastern end.
