• II

C17 and C18. 2 storeys and attic; 1:0:2 windows. A building of mixed form and dates, walled in red brick, with English and Flemish bonding. The west front has a C18 set-back northern unit of lesser height, an entrance section, and at the south end a Dutch gable, dated 1664. The gable walling, and its return on the south face is divided panelwise in recesses, having small brick arcading on the top side; within the panels beneath the gable, windows are framed within raised bands, linked by a vertical below the centre of each cill to the bottom edge of the main panel. The middle section of the front has a blank panel above an arched doorway (with keystone and impost bands). The south wall has a 3-panel division, without ornament. Red tile roof, part gabled, half-hipped and a full hip to the east; large brick stacks. Modern casements. The facade is probably the surviving part of a larger, probably symmetrical, design.
