Description

The building is a late 17th-century farmhouse with alterations dating to the 19th century. It is constructed of red brick in English bond, with a roof of handmade red clay tiles. The house is aligned approximately northeast-southwest, with a southeastern aspect. It has two storeys and an attic, and includes a cellar. The front elevation features rusticated giant pilasters at the ends and in the centre bay, with the centre bay projecting slightly and topped by a 19th-century central gable finished in roughcast. A hipped mansard roof is present. The three-bay front has segmentally headed window openings containing sash windows with glazing bars set in brick reveals; some windows contain crown glass. The central doorway has a four-panel door, a rectangular light above with geometrical tracery, an architrave, and a cornice resting on brackets. Above each end bay is an original segmentally headed dormer with a sash window and glazing bars. The rear elevation features a single segmentally headed two-light dormer and two large lateral brick stacks; the southwest stack has a corbelled capital and stringcourse. A one-storey-and-attic brick and partly weatherboarded rear lean-to is present, with a slate roof. A 19th-century two-storey range, timber framed and weatherboarded with a brick ground floor and a pantile roof, extends from the northeast side of the house. Internally, there is an 18th-century or earlier staircase with turned balusters, and doors with original furniture. A date of 1744, recorded in a 1952 schedule, is no longer visible.
