1. Late C17 house much rebuilt behind the front after a fire in 1967. The front elevation is faced with brown brick with red dressings and has 7 bays, the centre 3 being set forward slightly. The windows are set in shallow vertical recesses and the arches, which are in gauged brick, have a stepped extrados. The building has 2 main storeys with an attic storey above a richly carved modillion cornice. This cornice was probably originally an eaves cornice, the attic storey being an alteration of circa 1720. To the left is a plain, 2-storey brick wing. The front door, which is centrally placed, has a large doorcase with fluted Roman Doric pilasters on a rusticated surround and has an interesting bracket lamp. The pilasters support a triglyph frieze, surmounted by a segmental pediment. The house is approached from the road through a fine wrought-iron gate with brick piers.
