Hipped scantle slate roof with projecting eaves and 4 brick chimneys over side walls. Plan: Overall L shape plan; main double depth 2 rooms wide range and with service wing at right angles to rear right. At the front are two equal reception rooms overlooking the garden. The entrance is at the left hand side wall to passage behind left hand room leading to central rear stair hall. Two storeys. Symmetrical 3-window south front with original 16-pane hornless sashes to 1st floor. Circa early C20 French windows to ground floor openings with lowered sills. Between these windows is an original semi-circular on plan half-dome headed stucco niche. The entrance doorway, slightly left of middle in the west wall has original 6 panelled door and overlight with looped glazing bars.

This type of garden front plan was very fashionable in the early C19 and was often used for vicarages.
