E end elevation weatherboarded, one ground-floor single light window, one first-floor 2-light window. Rear N elevation. Brick with burnt headers, English bond, rendered with central projecting addition - some yellow brick, first floor weatherboarded, hipped, glazed pantiled roof, central C19 stack at N end. C20 lean-to in E angle between house and C19 projection. C20 lean-to conservatory on W side of C18 projection. Ground floor, two C20 metal casement windows with glazing bars, 4x3 panes, one wooden fixed window with glazing bars, 3x4 panes and one simple C20 2-light fixed casement. E extension timber-framed, weatherboarded with C20 central lean-to with vertical boarding and felted roof and simple 2-light casement window. To W C19 door, 4 panels, upper 2 glazed. To E 3-light fixed window. End walls of main house show straight jointing in gables between stacks and rest of gable wall. Also straight pitched lines of headers behind mansard roof `crank'. This suggests that the mansard was probably a later early C19 alteration of a simple pitched roof. Bonding system of brickwork changes from Flemish to English across both gable end walls from front to back. INTERIOR: evidence not visible. Staircase rises from front to back with earlier C18 shaped handrail. Internal shutters remain in the front windows. One upstairs fireplace with Art Nouveau surround and grate hood. Haylands (qv), Little Oakhurst (qv) and Nunns form a group.
