Description
Castle Tea Room and Garden, which includes attached outbuildings, is a house partly used as a tea room, dating from the late 17th to early 18th century. It features rubble stone walls and a stone slate roof, with plastered end stacks. The building is two storeys high with an attic. The ground floor has two part-glazed battened doors set under segmental arches, one casement window with lead lights, and a square bay window with lead lights and a moulded cornice. The first floor contains four casement windows with lead lights, while the attic has two hipped dormers. To the left are attached outbuildings, partly constructed of stone and partly of brick, with a stone slate roof, currently used as garages. At the right end, there is a range of single-storey outbuildings at the rear, built in matching materials. This property is managed by the National Trust.
