Description
This is a late 17th-century house, altered in the mid-18th century and extended in 1896. The main part of the house is built of red brick with a plain tiled roof. The rear wings incorporate weatherboarding and tile hanging. The house has two storeys and an attic, with a plinth, a moulded plat band, and a modillion eaves cornice to the hipped roof, which has two hipped dormers and chimney stacks to the left, rear left, and right. It features a regular arrangement of six-pane sash windows on the first floor and four on the ground floor. The central door has six raised and fielded panels, a traceried fanlight, and a 20th-century open pediment.
The rear wings include a late 17th-century section with kneelered gables, connected by a covered arcaded bridge to an 1896 coach house with tile hanging above which is a billiard room. Beyond this are a 17th-century stable range and granary, with some parts weatherboarded on staddle stones and underbuilt with flint, and others constructed of red brick in English bond with three horizontally sliding glazing bar sashes.
Inside, the 18th-century staircase is dogleg with a winder, twisted balusters, newels on an open string. A fire surround features pulvinated and lugged details.
